Don't have any data on these but I usually, without the spring in the
fork and the fork fully compressed, set the oil level a minimum of 110mm
below the top of the fork tube.  This is usually about right for road
bikes but a greater travel from a mud plugger may require something a
little more.  I'd go with whatever the book says for the huskies, it
won't be a million miles off!

Have the info for the huskies, and they are normal style forks, the
yammy is way different. no end caps so needs to be filled via the leg
after assembly so need the exact amount.
 would have thought i could find more info on the DT than just 10weight
