Rear Wheels Break Traction

My 85 300SD will every now and then break traction for a second when taking off from a stop. This is not due to obvioius romping on the throttle or the like. Seems to be somewhat random. Rear shocks and tires seem ok. This is more likely to happen if going up an incline. My mechanic can reproduce the problem but has no solution. Possible rear suspension or differential issue? Ideas welcome. Thanks.

Have you ever changed the differential fluid?
