A cam shaft assembly (10) constructed from a plurality of lobes (14) spaced along the longitudinal axis of a tubular shaft member (12). Each lobe (14) is defined by a body portion (16) and a camming portion (20). The lobes (14) define a pair of oppositely facing radially extending side surface (22) which have axially extending shoulders (24) thereon. The shoulders (24) are for mating engagement with a gauging surface (44) to positively position the lobe (14) angularly with respect to the longitudinal axis while the lobes (14) are being secured to the tubular shaft member (12). The assembly (10) also includes bearing journals (18) on the tubular shaft member (12). A method and apparatus for making the cam shaft assembly (10) are also provided.
