Dug out an old Dia Compe side pull caliper and took out the cable stud, dropped it into the 7402, put on the DA washer and nut and everything went together like they were made for each other. The Dia Compe brake was a generic 400.

Hope this helps!

Was it something like this? I remember the RD-7401 design and I think it might drop in. It might need some careful filing to work correctly though.
