Need support. Just found out my radiator is leaking

Have you checked drain petcock to make sure its tight and if is check Oring on petcock.

they deleted the drain on the gmt900's, unless you install a older model compatible radiator there isn't one.

The new replacement OEM GMT 800 radiators don’t have petcocks either, they eliminated them also. I replaced the one in my 02 Yukon Denali a couple years ago and it came without one. My old one had it.

My stock 07 Denali does NOT have a petcock.
I pull my lower radiator hose off to drain it.
Your results may vary?

Youd think seven years later they would implement something like that.... than again half a million in savings haha across all gmt 900 made

I never mess with the petcocks even if they're there. I just pull the lower radiator hose.

thats what dude in the video did, can i just let it hit the asphalt? or how do u dispose of it

Try and get it into a bucket or pan so it can be disposed of properly. Methods may depend on the type of coolant. Search for recommendations in your area. https://www.autozone.com/diy/antifreeze-coolant/what-to-know-about-disposing-antifreeze

Ethylene Glycol is poisonous so anything splashed on the ground should be absorbed or diluted enough to not harm animals that might be inclined to lap it up. Had a friend's dogs get into some antifreeze in his garage and both dogs died from drinking it.

Fluid should be captured if dog or other animal drink they will die.
Need to check in your area who will recycle anti-freeze.
