    Jeff, sent me this link... http://www.tffn.net/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=21263

    i went a little different with it...:yup:
    this is how i did the cables in my 8" rear disc. brake install.

    i took an...allen head bolt...and...cut the head off...then drilled a hole the same size as the cable in it.
    i then stuck the cable into the head (from the bottom) evened it with the top. then welded the cable to the head filling the cup in the allen head...:thumbs2:

    hope the pics. help...

    thanks Jeff...:Handshake
