but the good news is i am getting another cherokee with a blown head gasket for 700 bucks tomorrow, imma put my engine, tranny, tcase, and axles into the red 96 im getting tomorrow, ill post pics as the project unfolds

Flipped as in totaled?
Why didn't you have someone pull it back on it's wheels so you could continue on? A little dirt and scrapes don't hurt anything, they add character.

haha, i was on a dirt road, went to fast around a turn, hit some soft sand and started fish tailing, i lost control and hit the embankment and it went up on its front end and landed on the passenger side.
Oh come on that'll buff right out, I thought you meant totaled, this is totaled:
"insurance company may declare a vehicle totally destroyed ('totaled' or 'a write-off') if it appears replacement would be cheaper than repair."
