Hello If this information does not help, please get back with us but also be more specific on your vehicle such as 1500, 2500 etc and be specific on the engine, the Liter size. I attached a pic of the drain. It will either be at the lower drivers side or passenger side at the lowest point.

You fill the radiator through the surge tank. I have also provided that pic
