Airlock, if this happened during a hard braking, I would put it down to warped rotors & buggered pads. My grand like yours is lifted with AT's, on a trip to Wollongong recently down thru Bulli pass during braking my Grand shook & vibrated shockingly & got worse the hotter the rotors got.
I'm currently having the rotors & pads replaced along with ball joints, ties rods & all the control arms.
I could be wrong but from your description I think it's the brakes, but no harm in checking & replacing the other bits & pieces & given its age, those bits & pieces are probably all due for replacement anyway.
