Seriously consider the NV4500.. its worth the research, and adapters are readily available for your application.
Otherwise as previously stated, you already have the 4 speed and it wont cost you anything to bolt it up.. It will last the life of the truck, assuming you don't grind every single gear you shift.

I wouldn't consider any of the truck 5 speeds an upgrade from the NP435 you currently have, unless you need an overdrive gear. If it was my truck and the intended use was a street cruiser, I would bolt up a 4 speed toploader and be done with it.
