On most/all rear cross members there's a large hole on the right hand side, what's it for? There wouldn't be a problem with me mounting my towing electrics in it would there?

Common mounting place to prevent damage to socket ... my last 3 have all been moved into there As to what it's originally for - feck knows Guns and Landrovers .... anything else is irrelevant. |

I'm guessing, but was it originally for a power take off shaft to power what ever???

Same question asked and answered very recently here:-
http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic9469.html The recess is intended for the socket and is nothing to do with power brakes afaik. |
