Some. I had mine cranked for 3 years on 35's. Went through a couple CV's and ball joints. Never broke a CV, just wore them out (boots). If you have an autozone around you they offer lifetime warrantys.

About how much will the CV's and ball joints cost? What size tires can I fit on with the torsion bars cranked?

I think im going to crank so my 33's fit with no rubbing, just an inch or so,
CV's are expensive aren't they?

You don't need to crank them to fit 33's but it will give that extra clearance for when your out mudding.
