Convertible top issue - jerking during operation

Hi All,

I'm about 2/3 of the way through a road trip from Texas to maine, so please excuse the brevity and typos (on my phone).

My 2002 boxster s seems to have started exhibiting issues with the passenger side actuator for the convertible top. When I lower it, it seems to stutter/jerk about halfway down the travel. No issue when closing it.

I'm thinking that it may be coming off of alignment, leading to scraping, but haven't been able to fully diagnose yet. Has anyone had this issue? Can anyone recommend a lubricant to use to treat the actuator? Thanks for your help!
