An axial thrust bearing assembly for supporting an axial load on a load support member includes a main antifriction bearing arranged between the load and the load support member and at least one auxiliary antifriction bearing also arranged between the load and the load support member together with spring means which are so selected that a predetermined amount of load is carried by the auxiliary bearing, the remainder of the load being taken up by the main bearing so as to reduce the main bearing load by the amount carried by the auxiliary bearing.
