I just got done changing the gear oil in my alpha 1 gen 1, I had the tongue of the trailer sitting on the ground so I could lower the unit as low as it could go and it took a full quart and just a little of the second one when it starting coming out the vent hole. Does that sound about right? It's my first time changing it

If you have a gear lube monitor/reservoir (my Alpha 1 Gen 2 has one) on the engine, make sure to fill that to the fill line as well.
