Your problem started when you filled up with contaminated fuel. Get rid of the bad fuel completely. It is on the bottom of the tank. Quit trying to push it thru the pump and injectors. Injection pumps and injectors do not like water or trash.

Forklift operators can tear up a lot of stuff moving your stuff around while you are waiting for EUC to clear and act like they never knew it happened. Some are not very careful with you watching them load. Some can do it like they are supposed to and be very professional!
Look for Wilson 91-01-4376 for the direct drive starter and Wilson 90-01-4277 for the isolated ground alternator. Wilson does high quality remans on Delco cores.
If it sits idle any at all do not run bio diesel. It attracts moisture!

Other flavors of the best additives are ok too.
Replace the steering dampener while your there if it is old.
Set the proper toe in either yourself or at an alignment shop.
Toe in should be 1/16 to 1/8" .
Replace the long drag link with a new one for safety sake! The ball socket end is worn too!
You might straighten it but it might break there sometime too!
Torsion axles work best on single axle trailers like this, however being fully loaded all the time will reduce the life of the rubber cushions inside the tubes. Easy to fix by replacing the complete axle. Good luck with your project.

The adjuster bolt is 5/8-16 thread sae not metric like original. Some will have alignment problems...
The little puddle of oil could be diesel that came out of injection pump shaft seals. It runs down valley on top of engine, then thru a hole and down the back side of engine to the ground and looks like oil. Check it out. It could be a leaking supply hose that goes to same pump.
