Shock motion in skeleton

Can someone tell me how to model a shock within a skeleton. Currently I have just sketches for all components and everything moves when I drag the components but I cant get the connection right on the shock. I am using the motion skeleton so the control arm bushings are the ground body and the components are the connection bodys. I am using coordinate datum points for all references so I just sketch a line between the 2 and try to connect that as my shock. It lets me put it in with pins at the ends but then I cant drag. I want the shock to change lengths. Thanks for any feedback.
 
Could you upload a picture?, think this topic should be at the MDX/MDO forum
