Need help with my Farmall H waterpump

I'm putting my water pump back together after installing new bearings and seals. Anyone have any tips on the order I should install the packing, impeller, and retainers?

In the picture below are the parts I'm curious about the order. If I put the packing in first, will I be able to get the impeller shaft through? If I do the shaft first, will I be able to get the packing in there?

Is one piece of packing enough? That is what the Case IH dealer sold me.

Thanks for your help!

You need 3 pieces of packing. It has been my experience that you should install the shaft first and press the packing in around it. They are a tight fit, just go slow and be careful.
 
Install impeller, then one packing , screw in
packing nut, remove nut and install another packing.
Install as many as you can and still get driver on
end of shaft with packing nut on.
 
Thanks for the great tips, guys. I'll see if I can get some packing elsewhere because it wasn't cheap from the dealer. I see now that I zoom into the parts catalog there are three pieces pictured (even though the quantity on the parts list only said one).

Thanks, also, for the order of operations. Should I put the "Bearing clamp nut" on first (item 19 in picture below)?

You guys are a great help!
