Default Bravo lift ram problem

I have a lift ram prob on two bravo ones. Thay go up fine but thay go down real slow , one slower than the other and you have to have thrust to get them all the way down . toke rams lose and the drives are free , gimble bearings are free . flued level is good . ??

Trim cylinders commonly bind in the end cap from corrosion. They typically scratch the rods as they bind. If you can see the seal in the end cap is swollen from corrosion and/or the rod is getting gouged it is time to rebuild or replace the cylinders.
