Truck camshafts and bearing kits at Truckstop Group
The camshafts range covers DT Spare Parts camshaft assemblies and camshaft bearing kits for heavy-duty commercial vehicle engines. Camshaft assemblies in the range (2.10817, 2.10644, 2.10819 and 6.22027) cover Volvo and Renault engine applications. Camshaft bearing kits (2.91490 and 2.91491) are used during camshaft replacement or engine rebuild procedures.
A camshaft is an engine component that controls the opening and closing of intake and exhaust valves. On heavy-duty diesel engines, camshaft wear or damage typically presents as reduced engine performance, misfires, increased blow-by or elevated valve train noise. Replacement is generally carried out as part of a full engine overhaul rather than as a standalone repair.
When ordering a replacement camshaft, confirm the DT Spare Parts catalogue number matches the engine application. Cross-reference with the OE part number from the original camshaft. If you are unsure of the correct specification for your engine variant, call us on 01527 598 000.
Frequently asked questions
What symptoms indicate a worn or damaged camshaft on an HGV?
Common indicators include increased valve train noise, misfires on one or more cylinders, reduced power output and elevated blow-by through the crankcase. A worn cam lobe can reduce valve lift, affecting combustion efficiency. Diagnosis should be confirmed by a workshop inspection before ordering replacement parts.
How do I find the right camshaft for my truck?
The DT Spare Parts catalogue number is the most reliable reference. Cross-reference this with the OE part number from the original camshaft or the engine workshop manual. Call us on 01527 598 000 with the make, model and engine code if you need help identifying the correct part.
Do I need a bearing kit when replacing a camshaft?
In most cases, yes. Camshaft bearing kits are designed to be replaced as a set during a camshaft replacement. Reusing worn bearings on a new camshaft is not recommended. Bearing kits (2.91490 and 2.91491) are stocked alongside the camshaft assemblies.
What applications do the DT camshafts cover?
The camshaft assemblies in this collection cover Volvo and Renault engine applications. Confirm the DT part number matches your specific engine variant before ordering.
Can I get camshafts delivered next day?
