Draining out the oil through the gearbox drain plug is the easiest. You can also take off the differential cover, and then have a better look into the area for broken syncros, pieces of gears, etc. Make sure you take out the drain plug to review the amount of "hair" or metal deposition on the magnet.
If you want to use $30 worth of oil, then use the Redline MTL -- it may even be more than that now. I used that at one time, and then switched to just 10W-30, but added Conklin TKO, an additive that juices up the oil....
