DO You have big tires? Sometime big tires 32" or more like to be toe out a little. Stock spec is 0"-1/8" in. What is the Caster angle? If this is off it will affect where the toe needs to be.

Try this,http://go.jeep-xj.info/HowtoAlignment.htm, If you have adjustable arms you adjust them instead of the shims.
