I may be too late for this to be of help, but just in case.

The proper amount of oil is achieved by measuring from the top of the assembled tube after expanding and collapsing the components to purge the system.

I believe the fluid level on the 06 WG should measure 4.4" from the top. The figure ezriderpgh gave should get you close, but do the measuring.
