Can I just jb weld it back on or use some other type of epoxy. I don't have access to a welder. I can wait till I do, I don't think not having a spring will hurt it, as long as I don't just swing it open.

I'm assuming you mean the spring next to the lower hinge. JB weld won't hold and welding might not hold since spring steel is harder then mild steel in typical welding. Just go to you auto parts store and get a new one. They are usually in the Help section and fairly cheap. Oh yeah, and get a door spring compressor too(about $10). It makes the job so easy compared to trying to pry it back in or risk the spring flying out and getting hit by it. A must have tool if you have removed/installed alot of doors.

That is a much better solution. How does the spring come off, and yes I do need the spring tool. Moving it so I could work on lower pin is how I snapped it off
