Mitsubishi 3.0L V6 camshaft for 6G72 12-valve SOHC engines.
Constructed from chilled cast iron with HRC 50-55 hardness. OEM: MD145655 (Left Bank) / MD145656 (Right Bank).
Engineered to resolve HLA-induced lobe wear for Mitsubishi Pajero V43, Triton, and Dodge Caravan fleets. In stock for global wholesale.
We manufacture our 6G72 camshafts using premium chilled cast iron, a metallurgical upgrade that drastically increases surface density compared to standard aftermarket alternatives. Combined with precision induction hardening on every lobe and journal, these camshafts deliver exceptional resistance to wear and pitting. Whether you are rebuilding a rugged off-road Pajero or servicing a commercial L200 fleet, our camshafts ensure precise 12-valve timing and restored V6 power delivery.

No, they are strictly non-interchangeable. The MD145655 is machined exclusively for the Left cylinder bank, while the MD145656 is designated for the Right cylinder bank of the 6G72 V6 engine. Attempting to swap them will result in improper valve timing and catastrophic engine failure.
Lobe flattening is predominantly caused by hydraulic lash adjuster (HLA) failure. When oil passages in the HLAs clog due to oil contamination, the lifters collapse and create impact friction against the lobes. Our chilled cast iron camshafts feature high-density HRC 50-55 hardened lobes to resist this extreme wear.
Yes, replacing the HLAs and rocker arms is absolutely mandatory. Installing a new MD145655 camshaft alongside collapsed or scored HLAs will cause “pattern transfer,” rapidly destroying the new lobes. Thoroughly flushing the cylinder head oil galleries is also highly recommended.
Camshaft bearing cap bolts must be torqued to 14-15 ft-lbs (19-21 Nm) in a strict crisscross pattern starting from the center outward. Applying high-quality assembly lube to all journals and lobes prior to the initial cold start is essential to prevent dry-start scoring.
No, this set is designed exclusively for the older 12-valve SOHC configuration found in early-to-mid 90s Pajeros and Dodge Caravans. The 24-valve SOHC and 24-valve DOHC engines utilize completely different cam profiles, lengths, and journal dimensions.
We back our camshafts with a 12-month manufacturing warranty. As an ISO 9001 certified manufacturer, we ensure dimensional accuracy and material integrity through rigorous magnetic particle inspection (MPI). Export-grade packaging protects the parts throughout global transit.
