There's a simple trick to make that go a lot easier.

If you have an old shaft with the keyway cut in it, slide those gears with the key on the shaft while pushing the shaft through the right end. It will be easy to do because you won't have the gear cluster on the other end in your way. Once you have them all in place with the shaft no more than flush with the outside of the last gear, put the gear clusters on the other end and push your good shaft through from the left until it meets the other shaft. At that point line the keyway up and push the old shaft out the right end. It can be done with a piece of dowel if you don't have a worn shaft laying around. I hope that makes sense.
