Looks like a good kit!
I hope you remembered to order an upper vise block!
The barrel extension and nut are usually already together because that is what predetermines your headspace. And do not use locktite on the barrel ring when you fit it to the receiver. They tend to glue themselves permanently after being torqued and refuse to ever separate again.
You do not want too much clearance between the receiver sides and the hammer/trigger pin sleeves. Just enough to clear. There is an internal spring in the hammer that fits into the center groove of its pin and that is all that retains the pin. On the trigger pin the legs from the hammer spring fit into the end grooves and hold that pin in place, so the more clearance you have the more the pins can shift in the frame.
Now, remember to watch those captive springs and the little detent plungers. They can get away from you and there are no extras in the kit.
And when you assemble the trigger be sure and place the disconnector spring in with the big coil DOWN inside the trigger block. Oddly, if that spring is not in "big coil down" the rifle will refuse to reset after the trigger is pulled.
Probably just best to sit the laptop on the workbench and click through the You-tube video as you work.
With your skill set I would estimate 3 hours work ahead, even with stop and go checking of the instructions.
Good luck.
And if you get stuck somewhere I am usually up and checking the forum for half the night. Shoot me a PM if you need too.
