The Stock RV4 (straight) tail spring works great when combined with the
Aviation
Products Inc. dual fork tailwheel assembly. Mine works great. Vince
Frazier
also has a nice tailwheel setup on his website. Check it out...

Andrew,
If you have rabbit holes to watch out for, maybe you should have a look
at the monster fork that I made for Greg Illes. You can find it on the
vansairforce forums, just search on monster tailwheel. I can make one
for you if you like.
You can see all of the other tailwheel stuff that I offer at this URL
www.flyboyaccessories.com
If you've still got the stock Van's tailwheel on your plane (or on the
part that is broken off!), do yourself a huge favor and buy one of my
tailwheels. If not mine, buy one from Doug Bell. Either one will give
you much better obstacle clearance and improved handling.
I keep my stuff in stock and ready to ship. Lots of other RV stuff in
the store too.
Thx,
Vince Frazier

Andrew,
I have a stock, unused, undrilled RV-4 tailwheel spring that you can have.
There are two different configurations that Vans sells; both
interchangeable. This one I have is the spring steel tapered version. If
you send me where I should send it to I'll get it there ASAP. You can email
me directly at larry@ncproto.com or contact me at the below telephone
numbers.

Andrew: We had the same thing happen to the tail spring on our RV-4. Flew
it home off the grass strip we were on at the time. The spring held up fine
by itself during takeoff and the subsequent landing at home field. If you
are going to be stuck for awhile, you might consider that. No harm, no
foul, when we did it. YMMV, of course!
Regards,
Lee...
