I installed Dobinson -238 springs on the front about 19 months ago; rear springs are stock. Today, measuring from center of hub to fender lower outer edge, I have 20-3/4 on RF and 20-5/8 on LF (therefore, -238 springs have settled to 3/4 and 5/8 inch lift respectively). Front measurements were 19-1/4 and 19 when I replaced OEM springs at 114,000 miles (so OEM springs had sagged 3/4 and 1 inch respectively).
I installed Bilstein 4600 on the rear when one of the OEM shocks was dripping oil at about 35,000 miles. The front shocks are Bilstein 5100 set to zero lift and installed along with the Dobinson -238 springs. If I were doing it again, I probably would install Bilstein 4600 on the front because I don't go off-road and it might be closer to OEM ride quality.
