Check the rubbers on the traction strut. Wear-and-tear of the rubbers (cracks, space, age) are a likely cause of the shuddering. See the next link. If the strut-rubbers are bad, you'll need to replace either the rubbers, the struts, or both, depending on the damage done and which rubbers need replacing (parts # 5 and 6. Replace both sides at the same time):
