Is shuddering felt through the steering wheel,or through the seat whilst driving :-\if felt through seat could be damage to rear tyre or wheel out of balance etc,if felt through steering wheel may be related to front suspension components etc or tyres or wheel out of balance.May be worth checking these first  HTH :y

it would suggest then from prop shaft rearwards ie:rear tyres,buckled wheels,doughnut bushes and other related suspension components also. But this is just my opinion and im sure someone will be along shortly with advice  :y

Swap rear wheels to front see if there`s any difference
