Why not just buy a 1/4" swagging tool?  They sell the "swags" at Lowe's

Subject: [TowerTalk] Tilt Over Cable Replacement

I have noticed some surface rust starting on the tilt over cable on my
HDX-555. I have purchased replacement cable but am having a heck of a time
finding someone who can properly terminate it for me. Any suggestions from
any one on where to start looking? I hit up the local small airfield but
they don't have anything for the 1/4" cable. I tried a shop that makes
hydraulic hoses thinking they had presses, they might also have the dies for
swagging but they don't either.

Has anyone ever gotten winch cable replacements from UST directly?

Thanks
Phil
