It will still be on warranty when you get back....providing it isn't something you think will leave you stranded out on the trail.
If it is just a brake shoe or something and not the gears, I think you are ok. I would however open up the fill hole on the rear final drive, and look at the gear and see if it looks ok. Maybe even drain the final drive and look for any metal shavings.
It's good to do an early engine oil/filter change, and an oil change of the front differential and rear final drive anyway. This gets any metal shavings out of the engine and drives early on. You should do this before your trip anyway!!!
