I got my brackets from Vans for my 9A. Theres 4 pcs on aluminum. Two for each side for my 9A. You could check with them to msee if its the same set-up of two pcs for your RV-4 Ron in Oregon

I just fabricated the same thing for our -3 the other day - used a piece of 1/8" aluminum as the primary, and a matching piece of .063 with a joggle to complete the sandwich. I used pictures from a couple of RV-3 build sites and did it by eye - after looking at the anchors ( and the drawings for them) on my RV-8. Not much science in to it, I must admit.
