What about dumbbell? I am not aloud to lift a ton of weight anymore with my back since my wreck. I've been doing dumbbell dead lifts. Should I go to the hexbar? I'd feel like a puss only putting on 25s or 45s.
FTR I had to start out just doing body weight squats, so this is a long way for me to get to here.

Doesn’t matter how much weight you put on the bar. Just go get after it.
No one at the gym cares if you lift heavy weights. If I am wrong and they do, then they’re a douchecanoe.

You should be able to hit 135 on hex bar pretty easily even if you're just beginning. Hex bar gives you a good body position.
If you're concerned about back, more than weight, bracing will help in safety.
Here's a good video on bracing and stabilization while lifting. Nailing bracing will be great for you in all major lifts.
