On the tractors we've done the hub lines up flush with the end of the axle on both sides

That's what I figured, I measured from center line and they are about the same. I would guess that any small differences would be managed by the differential.

What's the oil capacity for the 5060? Can't seem to find the owner's manual for it.

WHX??

Not sure of the exact amount but here's what I do. Take off the left side filler.. a 3/8" plug with a coupling and nipple just below it. Fill through the shifter hole if you still have it out or one of the 2 bolts that holds everything down in the tool box. Need a small funnel for this. Fill it with 80/90 till it starts to be visible in the coupling. Put the fill plug back in & giver an extra squirt for the women we go out with and call it good to go. Check after some run in and add as required.  Do check the tightness of the hub setscrews  if you had the hubs off after some run in. If I recollect right about 1 1/2 quarts??
