You're going to need better tools. A 2-ton jack will barely put out 1 ton of force, and it took way more than that to get the bottom to where it is.
What I would do is set a much larger jack (6 or 12 ton) on TOP of the plow beam, run the chain over the top of the jack and down under the bottom so you are putting the force on the plow and not just lifting the whole machine.
If you want this fixed any time soon, squirting penetrating oil on it is not going to help. It will take months if not years for the oil to get in anywhere it will do any good. You need heat.
Without access to an acetylene torch the next best thing would be one of those "weed burners" that runs off a big propane tank. I've successfully freed up several steering knuckles on running gears with the big weed burner. BTUs are the key. Just be warned it WILL damage the paint.
