Hi Guys,
I'm trying to get my 4 wheeler back up and running after several years of neglect. Installed new battery, and rode around a little last weekend. Noticed gas dripping from bottom of carb along with strong gas odor. What are your recommendations ?

Welcome to the forum.

The float in the carb is leaking. Take the carb off, clean it out, and I usually take a qtip with a mild abrasive (toothpaste, for example, or some other polishing compound) in a drill and polish where the float needle goes up into the carb body (the seat). Polish that, get a new float needle, and hopefully it will stop leaking.
