If you jack it up to investigate, use jack stands

What happens is when its pluged the water/condisation backs up inside and over flows onto the floor.
As said find the drain and make sure it is clean and not stopped up. It will be underside of firewall under evaporator. It should have a rubber fliper valve on the end of it.
If the flipper is not on it that may be your problem.
They do not drain good on the road without the flipper and some they have to put a extension on drain pipe to keep the road backpressure off of drain.
Does it drain sitting still. Or start leaking in the floor after a long drive?
There is another post or two on here with the same problem and he found some good info on ac kits.com about it.
