Update on my shuddering steering problem.
Well, I decided to do the easy thing first. With the engine off, I drained the fluid in the PS pump reservoir and re-filled it with fresh synthetic trans fluid. I knew that I was not changing out a whole lot of fluid, but gave it a shot. The old fluid was smelly, dirty, and a bit "metallic" looking...hmmmm. Within 50 miles, the shuddering stop and has not occurred since. I'll be changing all of it the next chance I get.
LESSON LEARNED: CHANGE FLUIDS REGULARLY
