coolant leak at tailpipe

[gregoryg]

Hi-new to this site so I may be repeating an often asked question. I have an 05 Yukon with 250K on the clock. Not looking to put a lot of money into it. Have a serious coolant leak above the tailpipe where the
lines ********* the floor above. I can't tell if it's the quick-connects or the heater core above. Is it okay
to cut and jumper the lines? I don't need the rear heat anyways. Thanks in advance.

I believe there's a rear heater delete kit available. Not sure what it consists of but I don't see why you couldn't just plug the lines up front. Someone here has probably some experience.

I checked into the heater delete. As it was the weekend and I need to be on the road tomorrow
morning, I cut the lines near the rear tire, installed a couple of elbows and a piece of the removed line as a jumper. Working great, no leaks.
