What is the correct toe-in for a 1991 Cherokee with 3 inch lift?

1/16-1/8" of total toe in. I set mine to 1/8" and have had even wear on the tread.

That's holding true to my experience with CJ's, thank you.

actually usually for me, the bigger the tires, the more toe-in I give it, because in my opinion there will be more drag trying to straighten them out.... but that is me.

Toe has nothing to do with the transfer case. It needs to be slightly toe in no matter what.
