Default Leveling kit shocks needed?

I have an '06 F150 n I want to put a 2.5" leveling kit on it. Will this affect shocks? I had a guy tell me that all four would b too short after a lift. Is he right, or just crazy?

A leveling kit is just a spacer on top of the strut assembly..watch this 6 min video and see it done.

I moved this to the appropriate section, tech questions don't belong in the members builds section.
