Hello 

I took off pretty hard then went bang,I thought it was the tail shaft cause it sounded like that after the bang but it didn’t drop,

no forward or reverse gears and when the car is idling it makes a nice crunching noise  when I try park.

What  do use reckon?

it just happened 30mins ago I haven’t searched forums as yet

Could be the flex plate (auto's 'flywheel') behind the motor. Iv'e seen them shatter & make that noise as the jagged  edge's try to engage each other, Either way its gearbox out. If it's that the flex plate is cheap new, Intune do a strengthened one or Atomic do a billet one (around $600 for a top shelf one)

when people say "half-shaft" on these cars they usually mean the shaft between the diff and rear hub... basically the "axles" on an IRS falcon.
