If an adhesive fails once, it will fail again.  I would try to come up with a
mechanical means to fix the rod in place.  Perhaps you could cross drill it
and pin it.  As far as adhesives go, one of the best is Devcon MVP 33.
Although MVP comes from the industrial side of Devcon, a very similar formulation is
available in a two-part consumer version called Devcon Plastic Welder.

Speaking of adhesives, I just bought a tube of glue which has to have the
greatest name ever thought of for such stuff . . . Griptonite!!!
