When this happened on mine I just bit the bullet and got a replacement short cable from Rimmers.
I also had to buy a pair of cable cutters, and I also got some replacement nuts.
The original nut is very tight, but the replacements are easy to turn with fingers. As yet it hasn't shaken loose.
I also put a few washers onto the thread so I wouldn't overtighten the nut again.
