I would try post/ reading in the chasis section. You can also do some reading in the projects section. A lot of people do swaps there.

some time spent going through the project section of this site might help clarify your vision. :evil:

Swing arm, wheel and fork swaps usually cost BIG bucks. Don't be scared to open your wallet. :lol:
Have a look at THIS thread.
