Was the truck in nuetral when you tried moving the driveshaft. My truck did the same thing, when you down stifted it shook like crazy. I found a worn u-joint replaced it and it fixed the problem.

First try lubing the driveshaft! Cheap! (and free if you've got a grease gun)

No zerks on a 2wd shaft. Have to replace the u-joints if that's the problem.

Don't forget to check the driveshaft flange bolts. I had this issue once and that's what it was
