I was using the hose to get some mud out from under my hood and might have gotten some water down the vent hose for my front diff. I'm not sure how much if any went down, could this be a problem? I would change it just to be safe but I just changed the front and back two weeks ago. I pulled the plug out to see if I could see in there and it wasn't any fuller than I filled it when it was changed. So if a little got in there will it be ok?
 
i doubt anything made it into the hose, unless you deliberately sprayed water right into the end of it. You should be good to go just keep an eye on it. if the gear oil starts to look milky change it asap. oil floats on water so if there was any water in there it would end up in the bottom of the case, you wouldn't see it floating on top.
