Just be aware that Jeep in it's ultimate wisdumb didn't put a high water
vent on the tranny like they did for the t-case and diffs.

This means if you hit the bottom of the headlight depth on a water
crossing, you can be in trouble....

Other than changing it from water contamination, I don't se a need.
