As said in the link below (or above if that is your preference) Steve Heath does the coil over conversions.
To my knowledge he doesn't do wishbones... yet.
I've been meaning to talk to him about the possibility of making bottom wishbones better suited to taking the forces transferred by the springs to the bottom damper mount but I won't be progressing this idea until my garage build is completed (10 weeks to go).
If enough people are interested I am sure it will become a viable business proposition for him.

ETA..

A design consideration would be whether or not to make it camber adjustable and how to implement this kinematically e.g. not like the later TVR single rose-joint which doesn't constrain twisting.
