In this example, 088-100A-KIT fits a Land Cruiser built between 1963 and 9/73. The ending month/year means this part Fits vehicles up to but not including September 1973 or vehicles built between January 1, 1963 and August 31, 1973. The kit required for a 9/73 or September 1973 vehicle is 088-100B-KIT, which Fits 9/73-8/92 or vehicles built between September 1, 1973 and July 31, 1992. If the starting date or ending date is a 4-digit year instead of month/year, the part Fits the starting year, the ending year, and all months and years in between.

How to tow your 40, 55 or 60 Series Land Cruiser

Can I flat tow my Land Cruiser by putting the transfer case in neutral?

The answer is no.  The transfer case gears are splash lubricated.  The turning of the gears causes the oil to be splashed around the inside of the transfer case lubricating the gears and shafts.  With the transfer case in neutral, only the output shaft turns, drying out the gear bushings in short order and burning them out.  Always leave your transmission in neutral but your transfer case in 2 wheel High.  You will also want to unlock your front hubs. As an alternative you can always remove the drive shafts to flat tow your cruiser.
