Bearing door gasket; Seal or dry?

[jchasemn]

Im in the middle of changing my bearing door gasket and the output shaft seal. Ive searched and didn't find an answer to my specific question. Does this Bearing Door gasket go on dry or do you skim it with some sealant? Thanks

The Service manual doesn't mention any sealant but I thought Id double check

I put them on dry and never had a leak....others on here may do different..

Thanks! I didn't see anything in the manual about sealant or a torque sequence so I just cross tightened them to spec and put the gasket on dry. Should be good
