tranny

I had a tranny MTX sitting out side for a long time. I see no rust or anything like that. So dirt or water could hit it all day if was raining. Is there anything I could check to see if it's bad.

You could pull out the speedo gear and check the fluid and see if its still clean. Thats where I would start.. beyond that is gonna be some knuckle bustin..

Don't try to open the tranny or take the cover off, just check the fluid for water (it will float oin top) you can do this by drainig it from the drain plug. It will need to be replaced anyway if it was outside. And replace the axle seals. If it sat outside without axles you need to have it flushed by a tranny shop first. You'll have dirt and God knows what else in it and it will detroy the tranny pretty quick if run without being clean.
