Need door latch info
1979 outside door handle will only depress about 1/2 inch. Sounds like metal to metal contact. Door opens fine with inside handle. Do I have to remove the latch, if so how the heck do you get in there?
Thanks for the help, got the answer, solved the problem.

Take a look inside to see if you can spot where it is binding. Good luck.
