Inner does make sense, as the threads are only on the inner side of the bolt and the rest of the eye bolt is a constant thread height diameter. When I pulled my eye bolt out I noticed what looked like faint threads in the outer mount and was worried that the mount was worn out because "the threads were worn off" but it does appear that the eye bolt just left behind threads marks as it came out. that's a relief. thanks everyone for coming in. have a great weekend!
