Just had front differential fluid changed today

They found metal shavings in the fluid. 3rd gear is notchy, like the very beginning of the syncro wearng out. I had Subaru put in Mobile 1 synthetic gear oil 75w-90 in hope that it'll help.

How much does a used tranny go for these days? I have a 97 Legacy Outback, think a RS tranny would fit and perform well? Just planning for the long term. I'm married to the car for life pretty much.
