They were the round ones. Classic Haulers, Mid-Fifty, and most of the other usual suppliers have them.

You need to get some vendors catalogs. This is from Classic Haulers website at Home - Classic Haulers F-1 Parts
And the stock brackets are there as well.

No, they mount to the forward side of the stake pocket.

The hinge for the tailgate has two long bolts that go through the hinge, then through the stake pocket and out the other side toward the front of the truck. All you have to do is remove those two nuts, slide that bracket onto the bolts, and then replace the nuts.

Look on the fender side of the tail gate pocket. There are holes and captive nuts in place for the DS and PS.
