Long travel mount

[blasterdemon7]

I've been looking for days trying to find links and info on how to do a long travel swing arm shock mount. I can't find it here or with google. Any info or links would be a big help.

I've been looking up some reading material so i can do up my frame properly and these are the books that i have found to be most mentioned/recommended. They are books that you have to buy (or find PDF's online) or you can look for them at your local library.
