Alignment required with strut change?

I have a 2005 F-150 4x2 with 4.2L mojo. If I change the struts, is an alignment required due to slight changes in the top mount location? I plan on having it aligned but timing wise I may not be able to get it all done at the same time.

No alignment needed. The camber/caster is adjusted at the lower control arm and toe is done at the tie rod.
