I think I have done a pretty thorough search and can't seem to find the answer. If this has already been answered then I apologize in advance.
I am trying to acquire the correct emergency brake cables for my build. I am planning to use the FFR supplied handle that came with the complete kit. I have a rear end with main disc brakes and then a drum brake built into the rotor for the emergency brakes. Here is a picture of the set up

My question is how do I connect a standard fox body e-brake cable to the "hook" on the drum brake. All the cables I can find just have the standard round ferrule type fitting on the end. See the picture below .
Do I need a special fitting for the hook?
Do I simply wrap the cable around the hook and use a clamp to hold it in place?
Does the spring on the end of the cable hold the ferrule fitting in place?
I know this is probably a dumb question but this is certainly new to me. Thanks in advance.
