Sjödin Motorsport / ÅBM Racing

More stuff is done on the trailer, and some stuff are moving backwards!.. 😉

The sealing and frame around the side trailer door is finally fixed after 5 years!… 🙂

A couple of weeks ago Me, Max and Sofi did start on the waste water tank plumbing, to finally get the rest of the bathroom ready for next years racing! (hopefully)

We also took the brakes apart again to try find the reason that we always get uneven brake power on the front axle on the trailer and try to solve the problem for real now this time!…

And then the electric motor to the air compressor that we finally installed in the right place broke down…. 🙁

And then of course some goofing around! Remember to always try have some fun when doing boring stuff… Like repair air compressors…

The weekend after me an Sofi continued with the waste water tank plumbing, and we found the perfect windy weather for it that also included rain!…

But it turned out really nice anyway with some extra work around to make the welding possible to do!…

And then the week after that Peter from Rörmekano came by and helped me to start on the waste water tank ventilation tubing, much appreciated!

Then I went by Bengtssons Smide and picked up some stainless steel stuff that they helped me fabricate with a really short notice! Nothing of this would be possible without the help from our partners! Thanks and thanks again!

So I could put on some insulation on the the waste water tubing and then put the protection housing in place that they fabricated for me.

Then I changed the electric motor, made a oil change, cleaned up and installed the air compressor again in the trailer so it will be ready to go to a race track, I hope it will work for a while now without problems!…

Then that good feeling you get when you have finished something you started about 5 years ago! 🙂 Been on my way for a really long time now to seal up around the trailer side door and then mount some kind of stainless frame around it to make the door installation complete and have it off the “to do list” 😉 And it for sure turned out really good, finally it looks done and I am super thankful that Bengtssons Smide could help me with a short notice and fabricate the parts I needed!

More small stuff done on the trailer!

Been thinking about doing this for a couple of years now! And finally me and Sofi spent some hours about a week ago and got some sheets of aluminum in place that I got from our partner Bengtssons Smide mounted in the roof on the lower and upper floor, more and more stuff are getting done and we are not far away from saying that the whole upper floor is all done!

And I have also got an rain deflector mounted above the rear door because the water from the roof hits just above the door and I get water in to the trailer!

And It’s all about the details! 😉 And of course hiding the ugly stuff!! 🙂

Before.

And after, way much better!! No ugly pipes!

A huge thanks to Bengtssons Smide for helping me out whenever I need some parts to the trailer! More and more stuff are getting finished on the trailer, I actually start to believe it will be pretty much done to next season! 🙂 And all because of our awesome partners that helps us out in some way, I really appreciate it!

Last weekend me and Max did install our Cinderella Comfort incineration toilet in the trailer!

Finally, we got a toilet in the trailer and there is no need to handle the number 1 and 2 stuff!… All that will just end up as some clean ash and that is something that I don’t have a problem to deal with! 🙂

First take the biggest guy in the team and put him on the toilet so see if he sits comfortable! 🙂

Read the instructions, once, twice and maybe a third time! Better safe than sorry when you are going to make two BIG holes I the wall!

Ready, steady, go! Scary moment but it turned out really good!

When we where making holes in the walls I took the opportunity to install a PAX fan to get the moisture out from the bathroom when we are using the shower!

Some metal tubing to put in the walls to make sure we don’t get any more moisture in them!…

Of course we did chose the best day possible with a lot of rain to make big holes in the trailer wall and be outside and install the necessary stuff around it…! 😉

But after all we got it done but we were freezing our asses of!!!..

Sunday the weather was way much better and we could continue to install the last stuff on the outside, exhaust pipe and the fresh air inlet!

And yes we will remove the upper part of the exhaust pipe and mount a cap over the tubing when we are out on the road!

It was a pretty simple installation procedure and I think it will be Event simpler to do it in a house, just like always with the trailer we have the problem the this “house” need to be able to go down the highway in a rain storm without getting any rain water into it!…

That causes a lot of thinking about how to solve problems with ventilation valves the are simple to open and close and all the stuff around that!

Plastic tubing installed in the wall and sealed really good, we are ready to install the toilet!!

Final installed! 🙂

I think it all turned out really good, and also it looks good in the bathroom!

Ready to use!

Burning poop! 😉

In June I bought some paint to finish the floor on the upper level! But then just like always things never turn out the way you plan so instead a couple of weeks ago me and Sofi finally made some time to get the paint on the floor!.. 🙂

And it did turn out pretty nice don’t you think!? =) It starts to look all done! Finally!!

Compared to where we started before we got the paint on the floor!..

First, clean the floor REALLY good!!..

The to the fun part, see the difference!!

I’m really satisfied with it, really start to see a little light in the tunnel really far far away! 😉

And in the sofa I got presents from my sister Sara and cousin Marcus, pop pillows! Really don’t know how I should take it but it’s fun to have them around! 🙂

Yesterday me and Sofi went to Lastvagnsverkstan in Smedjebacken and adjust some brakes on the trailer! 🙂

Felt kind of strange to have a working Sofi beside me and not a zzz zzz Max! 😉 This was actually the first time I did drive my own rig all by my self and also the first time I drive something like this since I got my driving license 19 weeks ago!

A huge thanks to Jörgen Berg at Lastvagnsverksta’n in Smedjebacken for helping me out getting the trailer brakes to work properly! Now we got 2 axles that works just like they should and I now know that I need to put on new brake shoes on the first axle to get the brakes on that to work like that should, nothing big but they are a little bit too much un even from side to side!… But that is something I will take care of in a couple of weeks or so!

More trailer progress last weekend, if you feel you got a lot of time and want a couple of extra days of work…. 😉 Install a fresh water tank in the place where you used to have your air compressor and then modify the air compressor to fit on top of the tank so it won’t take so much space in the trailer! But it for sure looks good and that’s important to me! 🙂 We are moving on with the trailer and more and more stuff on the to do list are getting done! Once again a HUGE thanks to Bengtssons Smide for fabricating the fresh and waste water tank to our trailer!

A huge thanks to Tobbe at T. Grundström Plåtslageri and Peter and Patrik at Rörmekano In Vallentuna for helping me out getting an awesome deal on a water heater, water pump to the trailer and then also a pumping station to put in our kitchen in the tent to get the waste water from the kitchen sink to the waste water tank! 🙂

Way much appreciated so we can continue to work and move forward with the trailer even during this bad year!… Feels good to make progress on the trailer when we can’t race with the car.

A couple of weeks ago I dit remove the trailer outriggers because they are bent and in a really bad condition and have been since the day I bought the trailer, 5 years ago!… 🙂

And now when it’s time to finally finish install the new waste water tank that Bengtssons Smide fabricated for us I decided it was time to repair and get the outriggers straightened out before the tank are going into place!

So that is what me and Max got done 1 week ago and they are back on the trailer and we even got the waste water tank in place and was about to get the holding brackets tacked in when it started to rain!…

Well, hopefully I can weld the brackets on soon and get it installed fo real! We are moving on and it feels really good!! 🙂

Even the truck are getting som TLC and getting prepared for the season 2021! 🙂 I took the truck to Smedjebacken a couple of weeks to get help from Jörgen Berg at Lastvagnsverksta’n in Smedjebacken to switch out the clutch that have been on the to do list since we bought the truck in 2017! 😉 And then we need to change one air brake cylinder that have started to leak some… 🙁 Well it’s a good year to spend money on stuff around the race car at least!..

Forgot about a really great product that we got to the trailer in the beginning of this year thanks to Glenn at Sprinkler Resurs AB and Erik at Cinderella Eco Sverige AB!
