240dl timing belt/brakes/stearing wobble, I gotta get to work! 200 1987

Ok, Went after a leaky camshaft seal and now I've ended up dissassembling the front of the engine. Got a new timing belt on there, she's running like it's off a tooth or two, CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE lay down a good way to get that belt on there? The camshaft and intermediate sprockets line up fine but then that double mark doesn't want to make it to the mark on the crank. Just doesn't seem to be fitting right. Says in the Haynes manual you can screw up the valves by turning the crankshft with no belt on it (b230f), true? How the hell am I supposed to get the crank on the mark then?
AND NOW...suddenly the brakes feel all screwed up, do they depend on the engine somehow?
And my old problems, I've got a wobble in the stearing, tires balding on the outside edges (play in rack/rods?)
ANd, my wipers won't go, good motor, can't find a short, blame it on a relay?
Any help is so much appreciated, I really want to keep this car going....sc
