I don't have a pic, but I would think mounting to the bed rail would be pretty easy.

This might not be what you're looking for but Demello makes a bed bar that among other things you can mount a hi-lift to it.

I like the look of Demello's mount, I'd like one if I end up getting a Taco. I think he had one or two on sale too.

This is either Jruz's or Jowie's Tacoma, I forget which one.
Pic was from last Fall for the Fall Colors run we had.



Pretty cool way to mount it.
It's actually a slider, or made to look like one.

Rob (WATRD) has his mounted to the side of the bed I believe.

i couldn't figure out a good way to mount it to the bed rails where i thought it would be secure enough. i also have a cover so none of the above utility rails would work.

here's how i did mine for ~$10 from home depot
