It looks like you always force the physics body to match your position variable every frame (so if the physics engine tried to move the bodies apart, you undo that and force them back together), and you never read a new position out of the physics body to update this position variable. So the communication is one-way. No matter what happens in the physics simulation, your code doesn't care - it never asks the physics engine where it should move to. Am I misunderstanding your code?
