The product was properly packaged and arrived on time. This hose is for the 1994 Montero SR 3.5, among others. The hose looks high quality and is made in Italy. The ends have one large crimp instead of two for the OEM. Both appear to be well made. Bought as a replacement hose. This hose works front and rear. Well recommended purchase. Only time will tell about durability. It's nice to buy something that isn't made in China!
