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.

Looks like you'll need to pull the axle to do it.
You might have the best luck by identifying the axle type/brand and then looking for the torque specs.. most of the axle manufacturer's have websites or tech support info.
