Jim,
What diameter are the fork tubes?

76 -78 TT500 or 78-79 XT500 triples will also do what you want, im pretty sure the IT/TT/YZ triples are all the same for the 36mm non leading axle forks anyway.

pre 80 yz250/400defg were fitted with 38mm forks,yz125/it175defg and leading axle equipped tt/xt500 were fitted with 36mm forks so what do you need as ive got both sets of tripples

So you need YZ125X triples.
But it gets more complicated: The 125X triples hold the fork legs closer together than the TT triples do, so I think you also need a matching brake plate (from a YZ250A~C, MX250, or YZ125C/X), and I'm not 100% sure about the lug on the TT/XT fork leg.

Have a look in the Ballards catalogue, they have an offset bar riser.

It will lift the bars by 20mm or so but it will also allow you to move the bars back by about 50mm.
