Engine Coolant is probably coming out of a small hole on the bottom of your water pump. This usually means your seals are gone in the pump and that the pump should be replaced. This happened to my '93 Jeep Grand Cherokee on I-40 near Knoxville about 3 years ago.
NEW ADDITION: I am having the same problem with my 94 grand Cherokee today, we replaced the water pump and the problem still persists, there may be a hole in the radiator like mine.. just replace the radiator.. that's what im doing
A coolant leak inside the vehicle is most always a failed heater core.
It's on the side of the Radiator, behind the grill on the passenger side.
on a 1990 Cherokee it is passenger side, halfway down the radiator,best way to get to it is remove the grille. The Jeep Cherokee radiator drain plug is plastic and very fragile. You should remove the lower radiator hose to drain the cooling system.
Look on bottom or rear of radiator
It comes out of the bottom drivers side of the radiator and goes to the water pump.
The usual reasons are one or more of the following 1. Radiator cap bad (system must be pressurized to cool properly) 2. Bad themostat 3. Lower radiator hose weak. (at speed, the hose can callopse restricting the water flow) 4. The viscus fan is bad (this is the fan that is driven by the fan belt. It has a slip clutch) 5. Old or Improper coolant mix in radiator (should be 50% water/50% coolant) 6. Radiator needs to be flushed or rodded 7. Timing too high. NOTE: do not remove the thermostat. it is there for a reason.
If you take the grill off of the front of the vehicle you should be able to see the radiator. Look on the passenger side of the radiator, your wing nut type plug should be on the side of the radiator. The Jeep Cherokee radiator drain plug is plastic and very fragile. You should remove the lower radiator hose to drain the cooling system.
Waterpump, thermostat, radiator, radiator hoses.

Yes, if the radiator fan is not working, it can cause overheating of the engine. The radiator fan helps to cool down the engine by pulling air through the radiator to remove heat. Without the fan, the engine may not receive adequate cooling, leading to overheating.
As long as the engine is not overheating, this is normal for a radiator to do. The heat comes from the engine on the driver's side, and exits to the engine on the lower passenger side.
yes it can
replace the radiator correct, the radiator is junk.

Cooling system leak or engine overheating and steam escaping from the radiator cap.Cooling system leak or engine overheating and steam escaping from the radiator cap.
If your truck is overheating!!! Then check the upper radiator and lower radiator hose's , if the lower is cooler the the upper the either the thermostat is not opening or the radiator is clogged
Look on bottom or rear of radiator
get a new radiator.
