I have a Cub Cadet 8404 (DK40 with a different paint job). I changed the front axle oil for the first time today. According to the manual the front axle should hold 8 Qts. When I drained it I got about 6 Qts. Then when I went to put in the new oil, after putting in only 4 Qts the oil level viewing glass was already to the halfway mark where it should be. I drove the tractor around a little bit thinking maybe the level would drop and I could then add the rest of the oil, but no luck. Can someone please give some thoughts and this discrepency. Should I add more oil even though the oil level is where it should be according to the viewing glass?
