Maybe the previous owner, "The Mad Welder of Lemon Grove", drilled out the rivets, threaded the holes, and installed 3/8 studs?
But the rivets are not that small, are they? They would have had to have been 5/16 erso holes.
Anyhow, an 18" radius would allow the tailgate to hang vertically, and keep the bumper even with the pintle hook end. Now to find a local bender of channel iron...
