'91 s-10 blazer help.. am i doing this right?

hello all, i just bought a new fuel pump, strainer, filter, muffler, brake master cylinder, front pads... and this is the first time i've ever worked on this truck.. so here goes... on the muffler, can i just cut the old tail pipe off and put it back on with exhaust clamps? and the same with putting the muffler onto the cat converter pipe? now the master cylinder, when i had to do a complete brake job on my opel i had to bench bleed the master cylinder.. so i take it i have to do the same thing to it.. and its pretty straight foward... when the brakes where pressed it would make this bad squealing noise.. so i think it is the front brakes because arent they the only ones that have "squealers"? and after i get the master cylinder on, and i put the pads on, this truck has to be bled by having some one pump the peddle and hold it, then loosen bleed screw, tighten it back.. and tell them to pump until all air is out? and now fuel pump... how common is it to have a fuel pump not work when it is installed? and is there any hints to replacing it(or anything to look out for)? thanks in advance..
