Default Stiff rudder

My SZD 55 has a very stiff rudder. When the cables are disconnected it
moves easily. One suggestion has been that maybe the tubes the cables
ride in are full of dirt and contaminants and that cleaning them will
solve the problem. I remembered reading about someone replacing their
cables with a smaller diameter cable but could not find anything in
the archives. Anyone have any experience with this type of problem?
