1. first update jailbreak with Update_jailbreak_bridge_1.14.N_install
2. update to last official firmware
3. reinstall all hacks i want to use through MobileRead Package Installer
Thanks!

Sounds like a plan.
There are a couple of details which I do not know if you intentional didn't list.
1) Recommended.
Your old one would preserve the jail break, but a lot of additional features and improvements have been made since then.
Plus, the requirements of the 5.4.x firmware series and the 5.8.x firmware series are much different.
Use the link supplied in Step #6 of the current jail break (which I think you did, but .... ).
2) One point, that is no longer a one way trip.
If you don't like it, you can use the current multi-device directions to start over, and next time update to a version you like, rather than most recent.
Follow the instructions of Step #7 of the current jail break to perform this #2.
2.5) Install both KUAL and MrPI.
Read and follow Step #8 of the current jailbreak instructions.

3) Now install anything that broke in the process.
MrPI is a 'batch mode' installer -
Dump all desired mr add-ins packaged in update_*.bin format files into /mrpackages at the same time.
Trigger MrPI with its menu entry in KUAL.
Done.
