d30 is 80-90,rear is 80-90 unless towing alot then it would be 75-140, that is per the manual,but 80-90 is normal. you also need to make sure yours is not a limited slip that needs any special additive. If it did it should say on the cover with a little tag.

You can write down the numbers from the axle tubes and find it online.

That doesn't work with Dana axles in Cherokees...
They were delivered to Jeep as D-35C.. C meaning custom.. Or in Dana-speak unfinished. Jeep finished them off and put them in. So Dana BOM number will not give you whether it had a Trac-Loc in it.
