Leveling kit and shocks

I tried searching on this and came up nada on it. Now with a true leveing kit on a stock f150 1990 with the i6 up front. Will i need to get new shocks for the front? And how close can they come to a good alignment on the truck? I just got new tires and want them to wear fairly well. Any helop would be appreciated. TIA

Longer shocks aren't necessary, but they might be beneficial. Check if your original shocks are long enough. I know for the fact that on my Bronco the rear shocks are almost an inch shorter than what's needed. Is that enough to worry? Not unless my car becomes airborne a few times. But the shocks will get replaced soon.
