A gas turbine exhaust bearing, disposed about the downstream end of a turbine shaft, is supported by four obliquely disposed elongated support struts. The struts extend between the bearing and corners of a square frame on the downstream end of the turbine. The square frame is disposed downstream of the exhaust bearing. The struts are slightly yieldable, to permit their thermal elongation relative to the square frame, and to maintain concentricity of the bearing and shaft with respect to the turbine.
