      If you're serious about blasting the frame, I'd suggest getting it powder coated. If you're happy with the suspension or at least have all your planned mods done, powder is tough stuff and will preserve the frame better than just about anything. POR is OK but not at all UV stable. It's not a big deal on things like a frame but anything that'll see prolonged sunlight will need a good topcoat over the POR. The biggest thing I have against POR is that it's completely not chemical resistant. Gas, brake fluid, etc, will pull it right off, immediately, and it's not the easiest to touch up.



      Blasting an empty diff housing shouldn't be a big deal, you'll just have to get every single grain of sand out before assembly of course.

          just remember you don't have to blow your wad all at once. you can get a basic cage for now, then add the rear family portion, then the seat tie ins. Its really not that big of a deal to yank a cage and add on.
