What's the proper torque for the lug nuts (and how much is a good torque wrench)?
90lbs is the torque for the lugs.

Depends on your budget. But I would say for a cheap one $40. For a good one $100 - $150.

I wound up getting the Brownline Digital from Amazon and like it. ($100)

The fact that you only hear it loading and unloading I would start with lugs. From there is you have a jack check the suspesion bolts make sure all is tight.
