A bicycle crimping tool is made for crimping soft aluminum ends on cables. I was at West Marine yesterday and had them make up some locking cables for my kayaks. A loop over the bow and one over the stern that lock together under the racks. They were more than obliging as I ran out to the parking lot to test each for fit. If you can measure it up, then bring the assembly to West Marine, they would happily crimp it for you using their massive, bench mounted crimper.
