id guess rear tyres to check there round then move on to axle or prop joints would be the first things to check

OOps they are totally different circumferences! Your center diff will have already died and is probably locking/unlocking continually as you drive in a straight line.
Mine is going and judders on tight corners but you have the same symptoms in a straight line because your tyre circumferences are totally different. I would imagine its too late to save the diff but I wouldn't drive it like that - it's putting unnecessary strain on everything and I would imagine its rather dangerous cornering nevertheless the ABS not working as effectively if the wheels are turning at different speeds.
