shudder on acceleration
 
I have an 83 non turbo wagon that shudders on acceleration. It happens mostly in first gear on hard/medium acceleration. I have heard possibly rear bushings or torque rod could help. If anyone has dealt with this before or has any ideas for me they would be greatly appreciated.

Manual gearbox or automatic?

It is a manual gearbox. Thanks for looking, hope you have an idea.

May be driveshaft or related u joints...

First thing I would check is the center support bearing for the driveshaft.

Check the flex disk, if the 83 has one. I had the same problem with my 89 and that took care of it.
