Extending Travel on a Rockshox Tora Trail 289?

I currently own a silver Rockshox Tora trail 289 (non u-turn) with 100mm of travel.
I have been looking at diagrams of the fork and looking at the parts available. I have found that it would be possible for me to buy a 120mm spring for the fork and a 120mm coil shaft and negative spring for about £25. Im wondering if there would be any problems if i was to replace these 2 parts during a service to increase the travel.
Any help would be greatly appreciated on advice of more parts needed etc.

Does yours have the 80-130 lower leg or the 80-115, if it’s the latter it may not go to 120!Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0

looking at the spare parts catalog it seems to be saying the trail ones from 2006 to 2011 have the 80-130mm lowers0
