Idler and Tensioner Pulleys Ram 6.7

I am servicing my truck by replacing the belt at 80K, but also want to replace the idler pulley and the tensioner in my 2013 6.7 Cummins Ram. The tensioner choices are Cummins part for $125, Or a Gates for $80. Which would you go with, both probably made in China. Cummins maybe in Mexico.
  • If I am not mistaken, gates makes the pulleys for Cummins. I can verify when I get back to work on Monday.

    I went with Gates on the belt. Won't be a fun job.
