I have read about 8 ounces. I just filled mine to the fill plug with a 140 wt. heavy oil from chevron. Really thick heavy stuff but not grease. It will run if given enough time. Many say you can also use John Deere corn-head grease. Chassis grease is not a  good option as it pushes away from the moving parts making it about useless. I suppose the heavy oil will be slung up on the upper king pin bearing so it does not fail.

How much lube does it take for the knuckles? And what grade would you suggest? Thanks in advance....

Found a good way to fill front knuckles for anyone interested. Thought i would check mine last night and had no way to fill them. So I came across an bottle of Fast Orange hand cleaner that I had bought at Walmart. It pumps the heavy hand cleaner out just fine so I thought why not. It worked great on the thick stuff I use from Mobil. No mess and pumped it full with no guess work. All I used was the pump part after purging the cleaner out.
