Have a look in "How To " section and you can download M49 Service manual.
I have attached relevent section from manual for you in PDF format.

How's it going BlueBlingo? It's my first time on this site so I have to post before I can download your PDF. I hope it helps. Now that I'm chatting I'll ask you a question? Something snapped at the rear of the Berlingo and now it is lying down on the tyres like a dog having a shi*. Have you any idea what this could be? Shocks? Torsion bar? Rear axel? Cheers, J.

Have you any idea where to get those special tools for removing the torsion bar?

Thanks for that.......

Have just had the pleasure of removing both torsion bars to replace the trailing arm bearing which has destroyed itself. Just be persistent and keep at it eventually the torsion bars will come out. Make sure you have removed offset washer from both sides and be careful to follow the torsion bar to the other end so you don't remove the wrong bolt and offset washer. Soak the spline ends in releasing oil or something similar.

Where's the best place to get those tools for removing the torsion bar?

Hello James the best thing to do is get a recon rear axle it will save you time and money it's not easy job to do it your self ask addo alut: you can pm him i'm sure he will get back to you :thumbsup:

Next time I'd do it differently. Still, it's a mission and you need a damned good press.
