05 Tacoma Torque Converter Shudder

Here we go..

I've got the shudder, vibration feeling when driving. Usually around 25-35mph. Some times a bit around 60. Tranny shop said the torque converter is bad. Best case scenario $1,500. Worst case scenario if tranny needs to be replaced or fixed is around $3,000... Who else has had to replace a torque converter? Bummer. I just paid this hog off at the beginning of the year. (140k miles)

Its probably not the torque converter. Vibrations plague these trucks when you modify them.

I'd start with your u-joints, then move on to wheel bearings, check the truck while driving with 4WD on and see if the vibe goes away (if it does you have a bad bearing in the front diff).
