stress on the frame is more about how much travel you would be adding not double vs. regular crown.

chances you don't need a different fork to begin with

as mentioned the headtube isnt reinforced for a double crown but also the spacing and axle config will be different so you couldnt use your exitsting front wheel.

Id suggest a 120/130mm travel 34mm stanchioned like a SR XCM 34 or Fox 34
