So today I changed the seal, but one more question: I was told that the rear axle takes about 3.4 Quarts of oil, but I couldn't push in more than 2 quarts. After the second quart is started to flow out throw the filling whole. It is like that?

thx

I believe it's pints not quarts.

7.5 = 3.25 pints

8.8 = 4.25 pints
