Grand Caravan FWD V6-181 3.0L SOHC (1993)
Crankshaft: Description and Operation
A six throw, five weight crankshaft is supported by four main bearings with number three being the thrust bearing. The six separate connecting rod
throws pins reduce torque fluctuations while a torsional vibration damper is used to control torsion caused vibration of the crankshaft. Rubber lipped
seals are used at front and rear. The front seal is retained in the oil pump case and the rear is retained in a block-mounted housing.
