Does anyone know how to check the condition of a Kombi box, whilst out of the car. I have a 1800 gearbox that was supposed to be in good nic, but would like to know if anyway of checking it, apart from installing it.

Everything appears to turn smoothly etc..

Given that I only just thought of this question after the gearbox places had closed for the weekend, was hoping someone here may know.
