The normal limit for a lift is 50mm. Beyond that and you start getting problems. You will need to correct the reduced castor angle and correction bushes may not be enough. You will also need a modified crossmember, longer brake hoses and vacuum lines plus modified propshafts as you will probably get vibration due to increased operating angle on the universal joints. You will also raise the center of gravity which will increase the chance of roll-over.
Sorry to be the harbinger of bad news, but it is better to be informed before you start than after.
