I had the same problem, I have the same truck and if you hit the gas very hard the whole truck shudders and bounces. My problem was a bad motor mount, though you might want to check the trans. mount as well.

Eyah... My truck did that too for the first 3 months I had it. It ended up being the torque converter and the spindle gears. Mine shuddered alot and wouldn't shift out of first until 30 even if I was idling up a hill or if I hit 7000 rpm. The spindle gears were off center and the transmission would act like it was slamming it into gear. Its a good $400 fix, but its worth it.
