The problem im having is that I have no idea how to attach and make the shocks move and line up with each other to make it look like they are compressing and expanding while the legs move. If anyone can help me I would owe you my life because not even my college professors can tell me how.
This is done in maya so I would prefer methodology based on maya's workflow.

for the shocks, I would use some sort of deformer and have set driven keys on that. same for the piston.
that is a real method. go into maya help and look for set driven keys. it will give some tutorials that are pretty straight forward. what you want to do is a bit technical, therefore is going to require technical lingo. im not going to spell out the driven key process because it would take forever.
and making another post is also retarded. it's also funny when the answer is pretty close to what I had originally said. good luck!
