I saw a post a while back which said when you change your front axle oil you should recheck the oil level after operating a while because air bubbles make it hard to fill the axle properly. Well, I did my front axle 200 hrs ago and today was doing an engine oil and filter change. I remembered that post and decides to check the front axle. Sure enough, it was down almost a quart. So, it seems that rechecking the axle oil level is the prudent thing to do and I thank whom ever posted that good advise.

Check it till the level stays the same. I checked mine 3 or 4 times over the period of a week or so use.
