I have a similar but very serious juddering occasionally with my nearside front wheel when braking. At first I thought that the wheel was wobbling and that there was a problem with the tie rod or driveshaft but I cannot see anything wrong. The thing is that it happens and then returns to normal and then a couple of miles later is happens again when braking. I cannot remember if the brake shoe linings are riveted or bonded so I am going to take the front drum off as there is a possibility that a bonded lining has come adrift and is moving around the drum until it jams.

I would suspect a brake lining being loose. Could also be contaminated.
