i think it is the oposite way around, i think the forks will fit but the shock wont. Hopefully someone will hvae the real scoop on this.
Either way, i expect that the valving specs would be much, much different so if you have a revalved set on the 125, the settings wont transfer. go to a spring rate checker and put your weight into both bikes and see what springs it brings up.

The forks will fit straight in your bike although the spring rate and valving is a little stiffer, as a rule of thumb YZ 250 F suspension will be roughly the same spec as a YZ 250 this goes for both fork and shock.
As for the shock the reservoir will be shorter on the 4T to clear the exhaust so your YZ shock may not fit you can try it but it will be tight.
Hope this helps
