After a 150 mile trip to where I'm at right now, I noticed that diff fund is coming out of the diff breather after smelling some of it in the cab since I raised the rear breather to the rear stop light, I'll be checking in more detail when I get back, but besides the obvious excess of fluid that expanded with heat, is there something I have to worry about?

Sounds like you just overfilled your diff and now the fluid is getting pumped out.

I guess the shop did when they regeared, besides that there shouldn't be any worries right?

Nope nothing to worry about. It's just overfilled like Eddie said
