if it was over filled previously and she really got working hard off road it is possible you spit some out.

Look real close at the tranny cooler lines.

How is your tranny fluid levels? engine oil levels?

I had read somewhere about an allison issue with fluid coming out the vent in cold weather. But I would still check the trans fluid level.
