A bearing assembly support comprises a body, the body defining: a thrust surface; an aperture extending through the body; and at least one passageway along which a lubricant can flow away from the thrust surface during use. The thrust surface is suitable for contacting an end of a bearing assembly. The aperture is suitable for receipt of a shaft when supported by the bearing assembly. Each passageway may be defined by a recess on the thrust surface or a cut away section that extends through the body from the thrust surface to an opposite surface of the body. The body may be a housing for receipt of a bearing assembly or an end cap for a housing.
