the 18R(g)'s in the RA23/28/40 have a mid bulge configuration.
im not sure what sump the 22R will have
some 18R powered toyotas did have a front bulge (coronas ?) sumps.
very good chance that the 18r mounts will sit too far foward compared to the hilux xmember. i put a 18RG in a RA60 not long ago - i just had some 100 x 10mm plate with 4 holes. i suspect that you would have to do similar
one downside of the 18RG's is their lack of low down torque. i had to wait for mine to reach ~3500 before the cams start to do their buisness  - they pull pretty hard one in the power band though
oh yeh - if the 22R sump is the same as a 21R sump then they wont go onto a 18R
