Coolant leak
I have had this coolant leak and i cant find out where its coming from. I thought it was the lower Radiator hose. i just replaced that today and it still leaks. it looks like it is coming from where the lower hose connects to the engine. Any help guys.?!?!? I'm stumped and coolant is leaking fast. it seems to only leak when i turn my car off, but even sometimes it does not leak.
P.S. i got the cragar soft 8's on ill have some pictures up later on tonight

yes i double checked the house and re tightened the new clamp. Look above the house on the motor it looks like it is not even coming from the pipe?

here is a pretty good writeup for waterpump replacement.

if you wouldnt mind, try doing a CF waterpump replacement and i will make it a sticky.

if it's coming from where the hose that connects to the engine then it's definately the water pump. i had the same problem 3 days after buying my new jeep. it's pretty easy to fix and should only take you a couple of hours.
