When I do this I use are longer bolt with about 3/8" of unthreaded rod below the head. This way the rotating parts are not pivoting on bolt threads which will cause wear. The unthreaded part extends through the complete assembly plus a bit. Add enough flat washers below the nut so there is room for future adjustment. Cut off the threads that are not used. Reaching in with two wrenches to make future adjustments is a breeze.

@bradleydavidgood  personally have added a light / medium   extension spring to  all my , choke / throttle cables , at the  opposite end  , to pull it  closed / stop ?  that way  you always have a MOVEMENT ASSIST , to any cable movement ,  of course ,all my  cables are lubricated for movement function , https://www.google.com/search?q=light+extension+spring&rlz=1C1CHBF_enUS866US866&oq=light+extension+spring+&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyCggAEEUYFhge like 3-1 penetrating oil , easy to experiment on this , years in usage , consistently  work . pete
