I realized shortly after posting that yours is a v8 with AWD not 4wd ...oops.
Yes your transfer case has clutches but when they go out you feel them rumble around corners when you turn on pavement.
That's what sent my 2000 down the road.
Drive it a couple weeks and see if it gets better. If not, it may be time to have a transmission shop check it out.

A thought, does this trans have bands in it? Maybe they are loose in the gears slipping? (If there are in fact any) Just shootin in the dark now.

No bands and no other user adjustable items 
When do you feel it shudder? What is the trans doing when you feel it?
Can you describe the timing of the shudder? For example: On the 2-3 upshift, or a few seconds after the 2-3 upshift?

I think at that speed it is just going to hunt back and forth. using the tow/haul is about the only way to solve.
I'm glad the additive worked for you. I'm always leery of additives in general, but if it works it works.
time to enjoy driving it!

Sounds similar to yours. Might be something to check out; lots of similarities between the 6r80 and 6r60
