You should look at all the trouble you had removing and installing that snap ring as the perfect opportunity to tell your wife she needs to let you spent more money on tools.Thanks for the guide, I rebuilt mine this past weekend. My experience with the external snap clip on the bearing shaft was challenging as well.
I ended up putting the shaft in a vice with a socket against the tapered bit to keep some pressure on the snap clip (w/ blocks of wood to prevent damage to the shaft). Then I used a set up picks to wiggle the clip onto the shaft.
Might have too approach that once she gets over the pump being on the kitchen table over the weekend I'll be left dreaming of a shop press til then...You should look at all the trouble you had removing and installing that snap ring as the perfect opportunity to tell your wife she needs to let you spent more money on tools.

I may have missed it but I think there is a gap in the steps when removing the bearing from the shaft. There is a C clip (I see the part listed in the rebuild portion but not removal) that has to be removed (and will more than likely be damaged). My kit came with a new one. See below.
Also, bearing removal is directional.
