I would go three or four inch springs and 35s for an expedition setup. I went 5" and now wish I would have kept it lower. 35s are cheap and easy to get anywhere and you can still do any difficult trail just not extreme stuff. Then there is the lack of power, if you're gonna do long trips don't get too crazy

I have been getting by on 35s with a mild 4-5" SAS setup with just improved birfields and 5.29s and a 4.7 t-case.  We daily drive it and use it for the exact kind of thing you have in mind.  35s seem to be well within the mechanical limits of my setup, I hardly ever break anything unless I get stupid and its good on any trail I throw it at, good on the highway and long trips. I get 19-21 mpg most tanks and I have goten up to 26 mpg on a long trip with a 3RZ engine swap.
