i've sandblasted PARTS that i have taken off of tractors i've worked on. after seeing where it gets, there is no way i'd sandblast an assembled tractor. also, i would NOT sandblast an engine block or any hydraulic system parts. there is almost no way to get all the fine sand out of all the nooks and crannies. for any close tolerance parts, i would either clean them by hand our have them hot-tanked (make sure you don't have any bushings or seals in stuff that will dissolve in the hot-tank solution).
