Each gas spring and associated integral hydraulic damper may include a first cylinder body and a second cylinder body slidable therein, and a first seal defining first and second gas chambers within the first cylinder body. Each gas spring and associated integral hydraulic damper may also include a shaft extending within the first cylinder body and into the second cylinder body defining a hydraulic fluid chamber, and an enlarged orifice body coupled to the shaft defining a hydraulic damper with the second cylinder body.
