aileron bellcrank cable end fitting information

[Rex Havis]

I have a 1940 BL, that the previous owner had made up new control cables. The aileron cables are 1/8" with thimbles and steel eyelets. the problem is that the cables are to wide to fit into the bellcrank ears. It appears to me that the cables should have been made without the thimbles, using only the eyelet or that the cable is to large and should have been 3/32 or less. If anyone knows the correct information, it will deffently be appreciated.
Thanks Rex
