Don't think that will be possible.
You would need quite a steep upward angle to keep the upright in the correct place and this would foul the chassis on bump.
The Wishbone would need to be longer.
The lower ball joint would be canted all the way over, locking out on bump.
Also there's no where to put the forward mount on the bottom as its mounted to the angled FF members.
