There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

PMK, Any recommendations for a medium price one that's known to be accurate?

If you plan to torque the axle nut (which is 166 ft-lbs ) get one that is 24" long or more. Some torque wrenches are only about 16-17" long so that they will fit in a standard tool box drawer.
That extra 6-7" of leverage makes a big difference when you are torqueing those higher numbers, and especially if you don't have a lift and are trying to do it while sitting on your garage floor. DAMHIK.
As to brand, I have several inexpensive ones (Chinese?) that I bought from Amazon over the years and they all seem to be fairly accurate for the occasional jobs that I do.

For the rear axle nut I suggest a regular 1/2" torque wrench that will go up to 120 lb-ft used with a torque multiplier wrench such as this: https://www.amazon.com/Bentolin-Mot...id=1624472657&sprefix=36+mm+ax,aps,230&sr=8-8
