i read about the trans fluid possibility, and the anti-shudder additive.
i haven't done those yet. however, it had had only regularly scheduled conventional oil changes. for the first time, i did a full synthetic oil change.
i haven't experienced the shudder since (maybe a couple of thousand miles since). if you are using conventional oil, why not try a synthetic first. inexpensive possibility, and probably better for the engine anyway.

Ok thanks. I plan on replacing all fluids with synthetic so hopefully that'll fix it. I've only had the truck a couple months. I love it just not wild about the shudder.
