EAA has a good video on safetying turnbuckles under the 'Hints for Homebuilders' video section. See if this link works:

If not, it's torward the bottom of the videos on the 'General' tab.

I just set up my cables too and I set the turnbuckles up to
have 4 turns inside the barrel (max for initial set up per
ac 4313) this leaves a good amount of adjustment either way.
I also made tangs for the pedal/cable attachment with 3
holes 1/2" apart. So far I don't think I will have to use
any of the built in adjustability, but we'll see. Now all I
have to do is figure out how to safety wire those
turnbuckles.
