Section 70 (2.7L DOHC Engine (Service Information) - Except Coupe): Camshaft(S): Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Dodge Stratus and 2005 Chrysler Sebring. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The assembled fabricated camshafts are composed of five bearing journals machined into a hollow steel tube. See Fig 1. Six steel lobes, a secondary timing drive sprocket, and a primary sprocket/thrust flange are pressed onto the camshaft tube using a unique assembly process. Camshaft end play is controlled by the primary camshaft sprocket attachment flange on the intake camshafts and by a thrust flange on the exhaust camshafts.
