Default Rear too stiff?

I have a 2010 LS3 Base 6 speed with a JOC Stage 1 shocks, adjustable end links with z51 bars.

The front of the car is perfect but the back is stiff as a rock. Are the end links out of adjustment or is it something else?

Been killing me driving daily..

Torsion or sway bars is not to blame is got to be your shocks if adjustable go counterclockwise to loosen.

It ended up being run flats at 42 psi. I went with hankook v12 at 33psi and it's smooth as glass now

At 33PSI you have 3 too many. Not a good thing for off the line acceleration.
