Drill Motor Adjustments -Rev vs Forward

Hi, my team has run into a quite a problem. We have our gearboxes mounted with the bosch drill motors running in opposite directions(really no way to fix this).

Our problem truly is that the bosch motors are stronger in forward gear than in reverse! It is a topped off value, ie, they run fine up until the power sent to them reaches a pwm value, and then the right one just stops going faster, while the left one does.

We would rather not limit the power to one of the motors, thus killing our top speed, but we would prefer not to limit the speed to half(or so it seems).

Anyone have any ideas how to get around this? is there a setting perhaps on the acutal motors as to which direction is forward, and which is reverse?

Thanks all,
Team 219
