What a fascinating problem. There's no way to mount it to the fork crown or the spring stays without something binding as it moves. You would have to have the stays mounted only to the link, that is the only way to keep it on center with the hub. I think that's why the example further up has two pairs of stays - it has to. There's not a ton of clearance even just for the travel much less for the fender.
