transmission used vs new

[hvrty]

I have rt. hand drive 97 legacy mail car with 120,000 hard miles.
Tranny went in july and was replaced with a used one.
It started leaking this week and now they have to put in another
tranny because the collar got twisted or something.

My questions are:

How important is the mileage of the tranny they are putting in?

Would it be wiser to purchase a "new" transmission from Subaru?

I don't believe rebuilt is an option they are honoring the guarantee.

Thanks for the input.

If you are going to keep the car I would go for a Jaspers Transmission. 3
year 36000 mile warranty. It will cost extra, but you know its good
