Gates seems to relabel a lot of Edelmann/Plews for PS lines and pump/gear reseal kits. The former was made in Mexico and the latter Taiwan or China. No comment on the reseal kits as I never used one(I prefer OEM for seal kits, I don't have an account at Transtar to get Transtec or other brands). The Gates hose I installed was nothing like the OEM one, I had to wrangle it a bit to install it.
