Default Which transmission do I have?

1995 Ram 1500 5.2 5 speed 4x4. I can't find an I.D. tag on my trans.and I need to know if it's an NV3500 or NV 4500. I bought the truck used and the previous owner isn' t much help. I want to change the trans. oil but don't yet know what type to use untill i know which transmission I have. Can anyone please tell me how I can tell the difference between these two transmissions? Thanks to all.

Send your vin number to this link: customerassist@daimlerchrysler.com
Should take a couple of days and you will get the build sheet for your truck. It's nice to have for future reference.

Read the information on the transmission fluid dipstick. I think it states the type of fluid that you need to use.
