Homebrew PCBs

I refer to those little shock absorbers for car back door, or even 
normal ones, but consider a haked shock absorber whithout oil inside. 
This whay, the effort needed to compress it is low, and arm lenght can 
be adjusted to minimum (something like 300mm).
I don't know nothing about heavy duty rubber pneumatic cushions. 
Please, can you give me some details, or a link.
