Default 76 rear drum break

I have a 76 ironhead and went with an after market foward control. It came with a long cable which runs all the way to the rear drum break. The outside of the drum has an arm with an eyelit where the cable just runs through it. My problem and question is what is the best way to secure the cable on the back side of the arm. I need a method that wont slip if I apply the brakes on hard.
