What Engine? fl350? pilot?, when you say BOTTOM END do you mean the BALANCER?

The PILOT balancer oil capacity is .21 quarts at disassembly and .17 quarts at draining.

Use 10w-40 4-stroke MOTORCYCLE oil not automobile oil.

"If you change the oil on the axle half how much do you refill?" I have no idea what you are talking about.

Get a service manual, you will need one, when I got my pilot project last month the first thing I bought was a manual.

One is the balancer and one is the transmission. They fill two different areas and each have their check bolts

Please take some pictures of what you are talking about, the only oil in the Engine is in the balancer, there is NO oil in the bottom end, the transmission is seperate. from the Engine, there is no oil lines going between them.
Your description of FRONT half and REAR half have me confused :shock:
