      I think that is all that is left to replace, the only suggestion I have is to take it apart first and see if there is something stupid easy fix. good luck

          see if turning the 3 pt. oil control valve knob all the way down and back off maybe 1/4 turn and see if it changes your steering,( i guess you could be by passing thru the 3 pt.) but I think you got something with the steering wheel shake and the 3 pt. working better, it makes sense things are not aligning up right there and by passing the flow i guess. I might not hurt just to know if you plumb in a pressure gauge( could be temporary.) on the high side so you can monitor what is happening and when.

            I assume that you have looked at the fluid level and possibly the filter screen or filter, what type of fluid are you using you might need to go to a lighter weight aw-32 should be ok if aw-46 is giving you issues if you are using utf that will be to heavy in winter in some units. I think you have a common sump system so you have just one pump to power things, so if you can figure out it should take care of both problems.

              I would take the orginal  alt. to a good shop and see if they can see what is wrong with it. if they can not fix it I would ask them if they know of a sealed alt. that will bolt up. Now if you need more amps to run accessories the single wire delco is a good way to go. And ask about the sense wire hook up so the alt. will kick in at a lower rpm.

                I have two chinese tractors a 2006 foton ft504a  and a 2005 le204a dong feng, those are both metal. yours could be different , I think the farmpro is  a jinma.

                  I was just thinking it might be a good idea to pour the old fuel into a jar just to see the condition of the fuel tank as if it is rusty it will end up in the filter. let it sit for a min. and look to see if it has any water also.

                      this is apples and oranges but I can confirm engines and oil likes and dislikes ,the wifes 2006 chevy hhr with a 2.2 liter if I put synthetic oil in it , it will burn a qt. in about 2500 miles if I use conventional oil  the oil consumption is zero. since it does not leak a drip synthetic it has to be getting by the rings or valve seals and being burnt, wierd. although I have heard if you have a oil leak synthetic oil will make it leak more cause it has more lubricity.

                        with only 70 hours it might not be broke in. hahahahaha   You will get more smoke possibly bluish until the engine comes up to operating temps. I would check all your fluids including if yours has a oil reservoir in the injector pump. (that one gets forgot alot) make sure the crankcase does not have to much oil in it. some of these engines are kinda funky about how their dipsticks are read , mine you have to pull the dipstick wipe it off and reinsert it and then read it. and yes white smoke is coolant ,black is over fueling and blue oil. I think you need to retorque the head and set the valves before you forget and possibly have a issue.
