Can't you just use a bigger and longer eye bolt than what was there?
The right sized eye bolt should be able to hold thousands of lbs.

I've gone up to a 3/4 inch bolt. It's starting to become cost prohibitive to find bigger bolts at this point.

Like this, get the highest rating that will work on your beam

Is the other side of the beam accessible? If so, run bolts and nuts all the way

Good idea, but no. It's not accessible.

A diet plan recommended by your wife's sister. Don't recommend it yourself.
