I'm thinking a quick fix would be to put ?your rudder travel stops coming off the firewall and hitting the peddle under your foot. Making sure it doesn't affect your braking. By doing this, it will remove all excessive forces from the rudder control system.

Mine is the standard RR supplied pedals. The right pedal is susceptible to the greatest amount of flexing from the pilots right pedal to the cable attach on the right side of the cockpit.
