Anyone know for sure if raptor shocks will go on a regular 18 f150?

Like said already, the rear bolt right on. But the front will not. I tried putting Gen 1 front shocks on my 18 F150. By the time you wrestle the Raptior shock into place because it's 3" taller than the stock shock, the Raptor spring will rub against the frame.

From my research, you have the purchase upper and lower control arms, tie rods, and sway bar to make it work.

the shock tower is different.

I've heard whispers of a tophat change that will help them work on a raptor conversion.

Else, you're going to need to clip the stock shock tower and weld in a new one.

Shock tower is different, but you can run a gen1 raptor coilover with the corresponding arms.

Rear shocks will rub the leaf spring, but you can fit a gen1 rear shock with minimal rubbing.
