The differential in resistance would indicate a difference in the "gap" that
the fluid must pass through. I'd venture a guess that the faster rising
piston is "loose" or worn,  allowing a quicker / easier passage of the
"restraining" fluid.
Think in terms of shock absorbers. The softer the shock (less resistance)
the bigger the jets or vents.
Get hold of inside and outside micrometers and measure the bores and rod
diameters.
Good luck
Don
