Default 87 Integra shudder

My Integra (220,000 mi.) has developed a bad front end shudder when turning to the right at low speed and high throttle. It dosen't really feel like it is in the steering. It doesn't make noise, just a violent side to side shudder. The engine mounts look and feel ok. The car is nearly all original and runs great otherwise. Could it be a bad double offset joint?

Any ideas?

Sounds like a joint to me. When the CV joint starts to go bad it makes a clicking noise which you can feel through the pedal, especially when turning under throttle. That's why I think it's a joint. :dunno:
