You can weld it. I've done it two ways, pull the door off and do it while on the car. If you decide to do it on the car, make sure you don't weld it crooked or it won't shut right. Also, you probably won't be able to weld the entire thing and it *could* crack again. Put a few tacks on the upper hinge to make sure it doesn't suffer the same fate.

so best bet is to take the pins out the door and take the door off and weld it real good
Yes sir.
