Newbie. Restoring a go kart for my kids that has a brake pedal and drum brake but no other brake components.

There is no anchor bracket for the brake band. Is it possible to set up the brake band without one end anchored? If so, what's the set up? In case it's relevant, the braking system appears to require a cable, as opposed to a rod. I think. The brake pedal has a hole that goes front/rear (presumably for the cable) and not left/right (which I'm guessing is more likely for a rod).

Sorry if this is not very descriptive. Late night post. Thanks for helping a newb out. I will likely have many more follow up questions!
