Need help replacing damper plate

I had no responses to posting in another thread so I thought I might try a new thread. Basically topic says it all, I need to replace the damper plate and looking for help. There are great threads on this already, but i was looking to get help with a few questions that were not posted on the other threads.

Thanks
