Some kind of leak over front passenger frame rail
 
Good evening everyone, new member here. So I’ve slowly but surely been chipping away at little issues here and there. Current headache is I’m leaking either tranny fluid or power steering over the right front rail. Its a little cramped down there and I see some hoses but can’t really confirm the issue. It’s saturating all of my passenger side suspension components and pooling in the skid plate. Checking fluid levels and I’m not seeing any loss to them. Appreciate the suggestions in advance.

The only thing on the passenger side that might spring a leak is the transmission cooler lines.

Either that or coolant from the overflow bottle area or a leaky valve cover gasket or intake gasket leaking oil down.

I’ll take a look and get cracking on it. Thanks for the suggestions on that.

I know that ATF and power steering fluid are very different from water. But one common and good leak from that area is the A/C drain. That is condensation from the AC drain tube in the HVAC unit. It is hard to see the tube. That is one reason it is a good idea to put your location on your posts. If you live in Fla or New Orleans, you have high humidity and therefore lots of condensation drainage. What you might find is the water condensation is mixing with all the other drips that are common with a vintage Blazer/Jimmy. Check it out. Jim in SC with 90 % humdity year round.
