Default oil capacities

OPT, I just changed the fluids in my 2002 sportsman- the front diff only takes 4 OZ of angle drive fluid? Just double checking being a car guy it just doesn't seem to be enough! Am I being paranoid?

You're not paranoid.. 4 ounces or to the bottom of the fill plug threads with GL5 80/90. You can use any brand,doesn't have to be Polaris oil. With only 4 ounces in the front diff and about 2.5 ounce of Polaris Demand Drive hub fluid(use this!) in each hub,that's why I recommend changing every 50 hrs if it's a continuous use machine.

when it's sitting in a 8 oz beaker it sure don't look like enough, I ended up putting in about 4.5 by the time I was done so it should be alright
