125-200cc fork confusion

Ok. Just getting back into the saddle of my old 99 wr125. Trying to do some service to her and have got to the forks. I just got done replacing seals and oil per the manual but I'm seeing different oil levels on the site. Did I go wrong with the 70mm from the top? Are these 45mm Marzzoci forks the same that every one calls shivers and zokes? Thanks

I haven't used those forks, but 70 mm seems high to me. Usually forks I've dealt with have been in the 85-105 range

I looked here at the closest service manual I could find though, and it does say 70mm for the WR model 45mm Marzzochis. (page 143)

That's where I was getting confused. The posts I see here are in the 100 to 135mm. Which was the other part of my question. Are these the shivers?

Take a picture of your forks and post it.

The Shivers are the 45mm USD Marzocchis that came on many (maybe nearly all?) Husqvarnas in approximately the 2000-2008 (ish?) year range. They have stickers on them that very clearly say "Shiver," so it's pretty obvious. They have a bronze-ish color to the uppers.

"Zokes" is just a shortened version of "Marzocchi," so it applies to any Marzocchi forks. Marzocchi is just confusing to say and spell.

I always get confused on this.

Start with the outside fork and move inward. The smallest one is for dessert.

See I thought that was the salad fork?! I got a pic but it's too big going to fix it. The forks definitely don't say shiver anywhere. Only sticker is 89917. I'm assuming u build date?

You have an early version of the shivers and the oil capacity is different. You will also find yours are a different length and have different axle sizes. Go with the specified 70mm.

I should add that a lighter oil would probably improve fork action and it was a popular mod back in the day.

I did go with 5wt vs the 7.5. I'll still try it and see how it does. Not that it really matters I guess I'm a little heavy for the springs but I won't be riding hard this year, just getting back in the saddle. Thanks guys for the responses.
