Lurches when shifting

1990 240 sedan B230F, AW70L


When I stomp on the accelerator and the transmission shifts, the car will lurch towards the right side. It's not prominent during normal driving, just when I get a wild hair and want influence the Insurance premiums. When it lurches to the right side, the vehicle is not uncontrollable at all. It's just somewhat nerve-wracking when you are not expecting it. The lurching action occurs as it shifts through each gear and is a momentary occurance.

Any ideas as to what's going on, I don't have a LSD rear-end on this car.
