That is a lot of lead George. Way more than I would of ever thought.
Paul, Instead of a loop formed at the front, you measure the length of the front part of the plug, make the front loop and at the end ( which in this case would be the joint) instead of a tail loop bend the wire back on itself (double up) so that when passed through the body you get the stub of the double wire sticking out 3/8 of an inch or so then you take a nail set and work it in the doubled between the doubled up wire then with a few taps of a hammer the nail set opens it up forming a loop and securing the assembly in place. It's much neater than a tail wrap but a little more work.

Why even try.........
