VIOLENT shaking after lift kit
So I know I posted earlier about having some drive shaft vibrations, but I feel like this is a worse issue.
I finished my RC 3 inch lift kit yesterday and was noticing some drive shaft vibrations. No big deal, but pretty noticeable. About a half hour ago, I was driving down the road (thank god I didn't take the highway) and all of the sudden my entire jeep started shaking violently. It caused my phone to fly off of the seat and knocked a whole bunch of things over. Scary enough to cause me to shake. Looked under the car and nothing seemed out of place.
I drove it home slowly and didn't experience anything like it again. Today I got a 4 wheel alignment and changed the oil, which I don't think were related.
What could that have been? I'm stumped as to what could cause a momentary problem that severe. ANY help is greatly appreciated.

No prob. Mine does it cuz of a sloppy steering box. Going to yank one out of a 2wd this weekend cuz theoretically it should be less abused than one off a 4X4
