Shocks/Level Kit

So my f350 6.0 powerstroke has got a level kit on it. I need shocks but I'm not sure if I need to get them both the same size or does the rear have a smaller lift than the front? How would I know what shock "size" I need to get for my truck. Im currently looking online on Shocks Surpluss for some Bilsteins 5100s and it gives me the options to get front lift shock 0-2" 3-4" 5-6". And rear gives me the option 0-1.5" 2-4". What do I need to get that fits my level kit. I'm a rookie here with diesels go easy thank you 🤙

You're basically stock with a slightly higher front end. My front end sits about 1.5" lower than the rear on newish stock springs. If it is truly level, then the 0-2" should do it.
