The oil level should come to the bottom thread of the filler opening.

It takes a while for the level to drop after filling. For some reason the level drops slowly, so it can take a while to fill. Take your time and make sure it is completely full.

I found when I did mine last that if you work the diff lock lever while filling the diff, the oil is able to go in faster. Helps to have an assistant. Hope this helps.
