Shudder when accelerating

My 1997 2.8 tdi pajero lwb with manual transmision have a terible shudder when I am accelerating from 0 while turning 60degrees or more to anyone direction. Had cluth and propshaft checked but these are still OK. Someone advised I should check the gearbox and engine mountings. Does this make sence and if so what should I check for? Vehicle got 540 000 problem free km on the clock. (Had turbo serviced twice).
Could it be the limited slip dif that needs maintenance? :?: :?:

has the difflock not engaged?

jack up both rear tyres. Block one and try to turn the other. If it doesn't your difflock locked.

Mine doesn't have a rear difflock. Could it be the front one. How should I check that?
