Yes and no. It would need to be heavily shortened. There's only a few inches between those two mounting points.would something like this work
Nope, that's it. Wheel clearance in turning. For a straight arm to clear the wheel, the inboard pickup point would need to be pushed forward roughly seven inches. And at that opperating angle, it would lose most of it's ability to act as a compresssion arm.is there a reason the comp. arm has to be bent besides wheel clearance?
is there any reason why the evo 9 comp. mount is vertical and not horizontal like the others in post #25.

does it matter how the comp. arm is mounted to the subframe?
I'd want to keep the lower as two separate pieces and two separate pivot points on the spindle for reasons stated in post #31. As least for a car that turns. For a drag car, it wouldn't matter.Why not go to a stratus style LCA?
Nice to see this active again.
Another idea - referring just to the weight carrying LCA - would be replacing it a simple steel arm using the stock dimension to locate outer spindle joint and middle spring perch. A heavy adjustable link then connects it to the inboard chassis point.
Adjusting the link eliminates upper A arm length adjusters in lowered cars.
That may work but you have to be careful since there is axle length to think about too. No one want to have a CV axles come apart . It is still a very good idea.

When you start adding length or removing length to adjust camber axle length/ engagement "could" become a problem.
Also no one has found suitable extended ball joint that will work. Having two of them in such close proximity has been a big pain in the ass.
^ Or a simple double-sheer-bracket version adapted to (something like) this?
