I'll have to into hack squats. I basically am doing a power clean for
reguar squats right now. But I hit a wall at 135lbs last time. It was
easy enough to pull 20 reps with a little effort.

How about one legged bodyweight squats? I did them for a while, when
I was working out without any equipment. They can fry my quads quite
well, thank you 😉.

Also step-ups may be manageable in your situation. Or lunges of a sort.

Its much easier to rely heavily on Deadlifts.

Sure, but I would add some work on quads. At lest until you develop the
technique and flexibility to power clean and front-squat challenging
weights.

I mean, that is what I would do, and probably will do, when my gym will
be closed for summer vacations.
