If you have the vent hoses run where they are supposed to be and your seals are good you'll be fine.

yea, you already have vent hoses...if you are in deep water/mud a lot though you might look into extending the breather lines. you can generally find the line on the axle, it will be a rubber hose, and follow it till it ends...should have a white or black plastic cap on the end.
