shudder like problem

[JWBFX4]

Well one way to tell if its the torque converter locking/unlocking is to monitor the comm gear display on the gryphon. This will tell you what gear your in and you should she a lock when the torque converter locks up...then when the problem occurs, you can look at the display and see if it keeps locking/unlocking. Also if thats the problem you should be seeing a jump in the rpms...probably around 400-500 difference.

I had this same problem last month. Bill said it was a software problem and had me update the Gryphon via Pegasus.

I like this answer, but am bothered by the "shudder" description. Are you sure you're not feeling tire imbalance problems? I had to have my tires rebalanced about three times to get rid of the "shudder" they caused. In other forums, this seemed to be a problem in my model year truck. The vibration in mine was VERY strong in the 65- 70 mph region.

Sounds like something mine has been doing for a while. Sometimes I think its the road but then it keeps going when I get to a smooth section. It might just be alignment or tire balance because I dont remember if it was happening before I got new rims. I dont think I threw a weight because the weights are stuck to the inside firmly.
