What limits the door travel on a 71 Satellite ? My passenger door swings almost 90* of the body. It has a cloth web strap (broken) Is that stock ? Or someones mickey mouse addition ?

(before you ask, i cannot look at the other side, as that door won't open)
 
90 degrees is too far for the door to open. Bruzilla is correct that the hinge controls the travel. My 71 Clonerunner was the same when I bought it.
The previous owner cut the limiter on the hinge's and both doors opened way too far. AMD sells brand new hinges for them, that's what I bought.
 
My limiter pin dealie is broken on the driver side, open it too far and it's stuck wide open... I always carry a prybar now, such a PITA...
