Both.

If you get the shudder on a feathered start or a dumped start, I'd start looking elsewhere. On a dumped start the clutch is going to lock up quickly. If you have a shudder after that occurs, how could it be clutch related? It is interesting that putting the traction bars solid against the springs virtually solves the problem. You wouldn't have a broken spring or a loose differential by any chance?
