Are the CVA's a different joint? Anyone have a link to a photo?

Yes , CVA is way different Dave ...
CVD Barrel for pivot on axle
CDA Barrel for pivot on the dog bone
CVA Binds more than CVD

yup, shocks are fresh and im running on indoor clay here in sothern CA (westcoast, ocrc, lrh). thanks for the tips... i'll try those out first
maybe go up 2.5w on rear shock oil. but may have to much adverse affects. you may want to add weight to the lipo if youre running lipo before you go getting all frustrated. im running a strip of thin lead down middle approx. 70 grams and then i have 14 grams (2 7gram thin pieces of lead) on front and back of battery. Using check point 3800 so it fits exactly in the middle of battery compartment.
My car is pretty planted on the track
R u running indoor clay track?
oh yeah, make sure youre ride height is set correctly 24mm from bottom of trans and 24mm right behind bumper. and your shocks are fresh right?

An upside I can see is that someone could make a boot for the CVA allowing it to cleanly retain lube. That would make a meaningful difference.

Dave ,
Where the pivot is located makes a huge difference...

Not the same Dave , sorry ...

when you rotate a bent CVD gyro forces makes the joint straighten or flat ....

). Given the barrell and pins are presumably the same size and same material, placed in the same location, the friction would be the same.Does anyone actually know if there's a difference?

Hey guys,
a 1mm shim gives 2 deg anti-squat? I have a 4.1 and want to know which rear toe config set up should I run, the 2deg or 3deg? The 2 deg should provide a "looser" feeling and better rotation, right?

The CVA has no handling difference from a CVD. The reason the CVA was used is because MIP has trademarked the CVD. The reason Ryan's setups show CVDs is because at the time that they were made we didn't have CVAs to run yet.
The 2* of rear toe will make the car looser and rotate more than the 3* of toe.
