2014 E-450 Axle flange gasket replacement.
I have to replace the axle flange gasket on my 2014 E-450 Super Duty MH chassis.
Due to an improper tire change on the road, we had 6 out of the 8 studs break off.
We suspect that the lug nuts were under torqued.
After the roadside repair the flange gasket has been weeping.
I suspect they reused the gasket.
I have purchased a new gasket, and need to know which way it go's on.
One side has a raised rubber ridge, and the other side is flat.
Do I put sealant on it, or put it on dry ?
What torque spec for the flange bolts?
Any information on this procedure would be appreciated.
