What Tools Are Recommended for Replacing Camshaft Bearings and How Do They Facilitate Camshaft Rotation on 2000 Jeep Cherokee?

The camshaft rotates in four steel-shelled, babbitt-lined bearings, decreasing in size by 0.254 mm from front to rear for easier removal. These pressure-lubricated bearings require special tools for replacement. Camshaft end play is maintained by the oil pump and distributor drive gear, keeping the sprocket thrust face against the block.
