Default ULTRASTICK LITE & wing dowels

I have been flying my Saito 180 powered USL for awhile now and all has been going fine. Last night I was really wringing it out, high power spins, square loops that were probably too fast, and fun stuff like that. When I landed I noticed the wing was rocking in the saddle. The wing bolts were tight and secure but the dowels weren't. The left one was loose and wiggling around. The right one was still tight had burn marks around it and was sort of hour glass shaped. On the left one I can heat some epoxy a little and run it in around the dowel to tighten it up. But I am not sure how to fix the right one. Has anyone else had this problem, and how did you fix it?
Thanks for any help.
Ron
