A sunroof assembly is provided for a vehicle having a roof with an opening. The assembly includes a panel structure, a pair of lift arms coupled to the panel structure, and a pair of track members. Each lift arm has a pair of cam structures providing a camming surface on each opposing side thereof. A pair of lifting cam structures are slidably coupled to each track member and have supports positioned on each lateral side of its respective lift arm to resist deflection of the lift arms. The lifting cam structures have camming surfaces engaged with camming surfaces of the cam structures. The lifting cam structures and the camming surfaces of the lift arms are configured such that sliding movement of the lifting cam structures along the track members relative to the lift arms creates a camming action to raise the lift arms.
