The 150/152 rudder stops on the rudder horn was in response to loss of control
issues during training specifically spin training
The original stops were much smaller and could jump over the adjustment stop
resulting in jammed rudder and several deaths
Regarding stress on cables as a former 152

I'm about to make an argument for stops at the surface only. I think I've
got a good argument here.

The highest loads you'll ever put on your rudder cables and rudder horn are
when you are braking if you have toe brakes. The Tony Bingelis books advise
using stops at the control surfaces to prevent overload and damage at the
control surface hinges when parked with a tailwind, should you happen
too hard. So
it looks like we have a reason for something to protect the flight surface from
banging over too far, and also the control cable and related from being
stressed. Why not both?

Ever look at a Cessna?
The control stops are at the control surfaces to prevent over stressing the
surface due to flight loads, not pilot input.
Just sayin'

I would disagree with Larry on that one.
The control surface stops should be as close to the control surface as possible.
It is a Canadian requirement to have control stops on all control surfaces.
My rudder stops are where the control horn meets the fuselage. A simple bracket
was added with adjus

Method will depend on your setup but put them at the rudder bar and
not on the tail. You don't w
