Remove front and rear driveshafts and cover up the tailpiece of the tranny with plastic and ducktape. lock and tie the steering wheel with rope to the seat anchor post to hold it(dont't rely on the wheel cylinder lock), if using a tow dolly just remove the rear driveshaft and cover the tranny tailpiece and tow from the front!

Re: Towing my 1993 SR-5 4x4 Manual 5 Sp.
I flat tow my Runner all the time when I go wheeling.
Just disconnect the rear DS at the diff and tie it to the frame. No need to completely remove it. Put tranny in Neutral and t-case in 2 High, not 4 High. When the t-case is in Neutral it is disconnected from the tranny, BUT it is now in 4WD too. While it really shouldn't make a difference if the rear DS is disconnected, I cosider it additional protection. And if you have manual hubs in front unlock them of course.
