Dont know the capacities but if you follow the merry christmas thread at the top of the forum, it'll take you to a spot where you can download the manual which will have all the info you need.

i am pretty sure that you do not have Dana axles. Your truck has AAM axles. The rear is an AAM 11.5 and the front is AAM 10.5, i think. I just fill up the diffs until it reaches the fill hole, so i am not sure about exact capacities.

Nowhere near as nasty as skydraul (airplane hydraulic oil) thats stuff burns bad. You better wash your hands before going to the bathroom with that stuff.
