well joe. you are not getting much response from your post. i have a 1997 2500 so what i suggest may not apply to your machine. does your truck have a locking differential mine does and sometimes will make a slight shudder as you call it when i make a turn at slow speed. if your driveway is curved all the way this may have been what you felt. if not then my explaination is not your answer. let us know what you find. paul .
