Transmissions were definitely a big change for Ford in '53 and running well up into the 1960's if memory serves me right. You may be thinking about the bell housing for '53 trucks - that was a one year only part which allowed the new-design transmissions to bolt up to the last year of the Flathead in the U. S. Mac Vanpelt would be the best source for more information on this topic.
