Yep...same thing happened to me after I replaced the ujoints.

When I put the driveshaft back on, I forgot to put on NEW LOCK WASHERS! DOH!

It was fine for about 100 miles...then started to shake real bad...then BOOM!...dang thing fell off going about 60. Scared me to death. My entire shaft fell off...not just the front part...lol

Put new lockwashers on...and it was fine.
