Default Drivetrain shudders when car is stopped.

Does anyone experience any shuddering when you come to a complete stop in a 2004 GX470 with no KDSS? I experience this everytime I come to a stop light: I apply the brakes normally, then the car reaches zero velocity, then all of a sudden a single shudder is felt as if the drivetrain is loose. I'd like to know what the cause of this problem is. I've brought the car back to the dealership 3-4 times for this problem only to be told that it was normal. They replaced what they called were "splines" in the driveshaft and I don't know what the heck those are. Please help! I am worried that this shudder will turn into something bad and expensive after my warranty runs out.
