Yes, you can use any spring you want. The location of the arm has nothing to do with the type or rate of spring. It's a geometry thing. It gives you more neg. camber gain. You could use an air bag if you want really.

i was just thinking that with so much drop of the UCA and a short coil spring, the coil spring can be jarred loose while driving and cause some damage.

EDIT: does that sound retarded?! :doh

Not at all

Even with the regular 1" drop, a limit cable might be needed if the car is low.

Well, you have the shock in there. I have a 1.75 drop, no issues, FWIW.
