1. A rolling bearing having a first axial bearing end and a second axial bearing end, the rolling bearing comprising:
a first ring having a first axially extending first ring raceway, a second axially extending first ring raceway, a third axially extending first ring raceway, and a first radially extending first ring raceway thereon,
a second ring capable of rotating concentrically relative to the first ring, the second ring having a protruding nose located medially in an axial direction,
wherein the protruding nose extends radially toward the first ring to form a distal end thereof and having a first lateral side, the distal end having a first axially extending second ring raceway thereon, the first lateral side forming a first radially extending second ring raceway thereon,
the second ring having a second axially extending second ring raceway and a third axially extending second ring raceway,
at least one row of radial rolling elements radially interposed between the first axially extending second ring raceway and the first axially extending first ring raceway, and
at least one row of axial rolling elements axially interposed between the first radially extending first ring raceway and the first radially extending second ring raceway, and
at least one row of rolling elements located axially closest to the first axial bearing end relative to any other rolling elements and between the second axially extending first ring raceway and the second axially extending second ring raceway,
at least one row of rolling elements located axially closest to the second axial bearing end relative to any other rolling elements and between the third axially extending first ring raceway and the third axially extending second ring raceway.
