drivers side does not require a gasket, its a ball and socket connection. passenger side I just reused the stock copper gasket.

like many said the stock one on passenger side is best. BTW they are like 9 bucks or so at Ford.
Also I've found the best is to get the ball and socket side loosely connected then do the pass side then the catback then push everythign up as high as it will go ( jack or buddy) and then tighten everything doen good and tight.

I bought and installed a new one from Ford just to be safe. It's less than $10 anyways.
