Another steering question....

[tyro]

So I have all my bits ready to assemble the new steering system. What is the best way to attach the chain to the cables. The kit I have says to just use a chain joining link on each end to connect to the thimbles/loops. I notice there are other ways of doing it with brass connector thingies on the ends of the chain. What is the best way? are there any flaws in the joining link method?

Small shackles (wired up so they can't undo).
