The low coolant light came on, when added I can see it dripping out, however I could see from where. It was near the tire. It's an old truck so worried that it's not an easy fix.

Good afternoon,

Can you post some pictures of the location of the leak?

You can rent a pressure tester to determine the exact location of the leak.

Right above the tire is the surge tank. I circled the most common areas for leaks.
