nah, the 4500's weren't in any bread trucks that i know of. they were either TH400's retrofitted to a 4BT, like mine was, an Allison trans, or a 4 spd Ford trans. The 4500 trans that I have came out of a 2500 series Dodge Ram 4x4. The 4500 shifts like a truck trans. The 3550 is a much nicer street type trans.
unfortunately Frito Lay and Pepsi got rid of all their 4bt vans, from what I've heard. I was lucky to get one a few years back. Even luckier to get it home in one piece w/out it falling off of the rented tow dolly....
