Find me one published procedure from a major axle manufacturer that says to overfill to the center cap

Read what Dexter says
Your link is ambiguous at best.

This line from the link:

“ Bearing Lubrication - Oil
If your axles are equipped with oil lubricated hubs, periodically check and refill the hub as necessary with a high quality hypoid gear oil to the level indicated on the clear plastic oil cap. The oil can be filled from either the oil fill hole, if present, in the hub or through the rubber plug hole in the cap itself. ”


As I mentioned before, not all caps have a ‘level line’, especially the older white plastic caps.

What that link dances around is ‘periodically check and fill if necessary’’.
If it needs fluid it most likely needs service.

The truck videos in the next post are not relevant to this thread.
