Hi i sent you a message.thanks
 
It's not a rear axle as such, it's a truly independent suspension. It's better and easier at this stage to remove each torsion bar from the suspension arms (don't mix sides!), fit the arms on the chassis then follow the Haynes or Renault manual instructions for refitting the bars. It will be way easier to reset ride height when the car is completed.

Thanks i think i have understood how it should be assembled. Never worked with torsion bars and i shy away from them.I am used with Fords and simpler/moder ways of suspension, this is all new to me.
Thanks as always for your help1
