Exclamation coolent leak

have a 1997 grand Cherokee Laredo 5.2....it just started leaking coolant but we cant find from where, filled the reservoir to the full level, radiator is still full. doesn't leak in short drives just longer ones, no squealing like a water pump does, cant see leaks from any hoses....

Look around the timing cover where it meets the block. The 5.2 is prone to leaking there on high mileage engines. Crawl under the front of your Jeep and look at the front of the engine for signs of green slimy sludge seeping from the timing cover gasket.
