An assembly (AS1) in accordance with the subject matter of the present disclosure can include a gas spring (200), an internally-mounted device (300) and a mounting assembly (400, 500) operatively connecting the internally-mounted device to an end member (202, 204) of the gas spring (200). The mounting assembly (400, 500) can permit at least a portion of the internally-mounted device to undergo 360 degree rotational and pivotal displacement relative the end member (202, 204) of the as spring (200). The mounting assembly (400, 500) can include a device mount (402, 502) that can be operatively secured to the internally-mounted device (300) and a retainer (404, 504) that is secured to the end member (202, 204) and operatively retains the device mount (402, 502) adjacent the end member (202, 204). The device mount (402, 502) and the retainer (404, 504) can include complimentary semi-spherical surfaces that permit the relative movement between internally-mounted device (300) and the end member (202, 204) of the gas spring (200).
