Pull the driveshaft. My bet is that you have a binding rear u-joint. I just had to do this for my '90 240. Common symptoms of a frozen rear u-joint is shuddering when braking/decelerating.

While you have it apart, check the center bearing and the rubber support. If the center bearing freezes up it will spin in the rubber support. If you need to replace the rubber support, try to get the OEM one. I installed an aftermarket one on my daughter's 240 and it lasted about a year.
