No, I don't always achieve full compression on the dirt road, there are some deeper ruts and bigger potholes I've hit though where it just slams down in the rear...has knocked my rear door off kilter twice so far...

I presume cranking T-Bars or lifting give it more space? Is that correct?
If you put on the OME springs and gained 2 to 3 inches, that space would be between the bump-stop and the axle. Mine was/is the same way. I lifted but then added larger bump-stops and they aren't real far from the axle now.
I don't think messing with the torsion bars would affect the rear geometry much if at all.
