Here you go Diesel-Central.com the technical source for Diesel Truck information, Truck Pulling, and Drag Racing
I just did this 2 weeks ago. Follow the instructions exactly and you'll have no problems at all.

Water Pump change video on youtube CLICK HERE
1) The video called out 2 people special wrench (I covered this also) and a pipe wrench.
I did this with the special wrench only and 1 person. What I added was !@#$!@#%$@#$^^$ and it came of easily.
2) I removed the hoses from the attachable necks and removed them with the water pump.
3) I did not remove the hose neck at the thermostat prior to removing the water pump.
NOTE: I found on the first bolt it snapped off easily. The remaining 2 smacking with ball peen round end of hammer before attempting to remove prevented breaking. Don't know why they stuck. But mine did not come out as easily as the video.
4) I used the tinnnnest drop of super glue to hold the water pump gasket in place. Think pin head size. to prevent the gasket from dropping out during installation.
5) Check all pulley/bearings
6) Replace all hoses and please buy the upgraded hose that goes around the belt vs through it. This will make you life easier next time.
7) I also reused the thermostat due to not having the correct one to install. I would recommend buy the factory part for the 7.3 thermostat.

Just a thought if you havent gotten a water pump id go with the Napa new tru flow pump part # TFW 45000. Its the best ive come by and its a one piece design so no more leaking lower neck. For what a t-stat and gasket cost change them! http://www.napaonline.com/NOLPPSE/(S(wgeyqgio430buk55ahm2fn55))/Detail.aspx?R=TFW45000_0144865560
