Front end shake

I have a 1999 F350 Crew Cab Dually. Yesterday I drove through a highway construction area and hit a rough area with the left tires only. The front end shook and the steering wheel just about shook out of my hands. When I braked, and quickly slowed down to about 5 mph, the shaking stopped. I was driving about 30 mph, and it is an area I have driven over several times before with no problems. A friend of mine, who is a mechanic, looked at the linkage and he couldn't find any problems. Does anybody have any ideas what could cause this problem?

Sounds kinda like bump steer to me. If there was nothing wrong with any of the suspension parts and it doesn't do it on other roads.
