Truck overheating and leaking coolant after accident?

Hi,

If the vehicle's front end is what hit the other vehicle, my first suspect would be the radiator is damaged. How bad was the accident? Any pictures of the damage?

Do me a favor, take a look through this link and let me know if it helps:

Also, if you are unable to locate the leak, I would suggest pressure testing the system. This is done when the engine is cold. Once pressure is applied, in most cases the leak will become visible.

Here is a link that explains how it's done:

It does require a pressure tester, but most parts stores will lend one to you.

Take care and let me know if I can help.
