Ok long story short i bought a parts explorer and ended up swapping the good interior into it, dash and all i mean literally ALL of the interior. I know for a fact it had piwer earlier today as i moved the front seat forward for my little brother. After i did that i removed the push button start they had on it and fixed the wiring, then installed the working alternator and fresh plugs/wires from the other explorer. Reconnected the battery put the charger in it and there is no power now, not even to roll up the windows or move the power seats.
I can't figure out why there is no power at all when there was earlier

Welcome to TRS :)

So no Headlights, no horn, no brake lights?

Or just no power when key is turned on?

Obvious places would be Ground cable from battery, and Positive cable from battery to starter relay on fender, this relay post is the 12volt side of the Power distribution for the vehicle, the other side is the Ground, both are required to complete a circuit,
i.e. a light bulb doesn't light up when it gets 12volts, it lights up when it gets 12volts AND A Ground(0volt)

Yeah it's getting no power at all anywhere. I'll have to check the negative and see is that's it
