olyman

springs can be welded----vee it almost totally thru--and get 7018 rod--at reverse polarity--weld only 1/4 inch at a time!!! and peen it immediately..let totally cool, and not by forcing it!!!! keep doing this till totally filled in. when you grind it flush--DONT get it too hot-----and keep the rod hot, and DRY. as you can lose up to 50 % of the weld strength if any moisture gets to the rod---thats why welders that weld on bridges have a rod carriage on their belt--and have to return the rods to the oven every so often----to redry them--- ;D ;D

junkyard

Bend a new loop around the old one.Weld just the edges with eutectic 720. Do not weld across the spring.
