Narrative:
En route from nassau to miami, I noticed the gear unsafe light illuminated, I cycled the gear and got 3 green lights, on the rollout on runway 9L taxiway west miami, the aircraft began to shake. I stopped the aircraft. After the aircraft was stopped we found the left main torque link had broken. Callback conversation with reporter revealed the following information: reporter advised was just starting turn off the runway at taxiway west when the vibration started. Runway was shut down until the aircraft was moved by maintenance. Is not aware of any action the company has taken. Does not believe this is a problem with the aircraft.
