Check with a qualified CPA but if you left your employer AND if you are 55 or older THEN I believe you can make a direct 401K to IRA rollover without tax deductions or penalties if made within the 60 day IRS dictated window .... (the employer trustee cuts a check to your IRA trustee and NOT to you).

A distribution (withdrawal) will involve costs and if I am correct, unnecessary costs.

Again check with a qualified CPA.

PS you originally mentioned a 401K but now seem to be alluding to another type plan, do note that it is my understanding that similar to above is available for most employer plans.
