Default DSS Stage 1's, do they still exsist

I emailed DSS for some Stage 1's and they told me that they are discontiued. I ask them if they still make them but I got no response. I heard on H-T that they'll still make them but the prices have changed. What is really going on and can I still get customs under $300?
Thanks

Ahh, I wish. I'm not sure, myself though.

They switched to "Levels" now.

I did hear that they would still make them for $100 less. Im not sure if thats true, but I am calling them tommorrow about it. That would make my day if i got some stage 1's for $150. That's almost as expensive as teg axles.

i had better shut up before everyone buys them and I get left empty handed.

what I heard through the grapevine was....

that when they dropped the 'stages', they also dropped the 'stage 1'.

So the Level one axles are now what the Stage 2 axles used to be...and that's why the prices are also higher.

I dunno how true this is though...anybody talked directly to DSS?

Well I called DSS today and the stage 1's no longer exsist. No we have to spend $400 minimum on Level 1's. They also said that they wouldn't make em anymore. Sorry DSS, but you lost a costomer.

well have you ever thought that maybe the Level 1's, even though it's still an DSS's entry level axle, might be leaps and bounds better than the Stage 1?

It would be like what Ford should do...Drop the V6 from the Mustang lineup

Yes, but I would rather not spend $400 on entry level axles. Its seems like a lot for Level ones...

I dont mind the Mustang V6, just means theres more cocky, confident stang drivers out there to leave in the dust.

On Monday of this week I called and order level 1 axles for my car. I think the reciept said it was like $419 shipped. Not only did I order them Monday afternoon I recieved them Tuesday night. But I think that is becuase DSS is out of NY and I live in NJ. Hope this helps someone.
