I agree with the last couple posts. Epoxy is not flexible. I rescind my previous statement, I think epoxy would come apart.
Still think big zip ties or hose clamps recessed a bit into the rubber would help or work on it's own.
I've clamped felling wedges onto my lower overload springs with square U bolts... poor mans lower stable loads.
I lost one, but it was after running at least 100 miles of washboard fire roads without the camper on the truck, combined with 80psi in the rear tires. Other than that, they've stayed in place for up to a couple years at a time. Have removed them a couple times when comfort was priority over capacity.
