Default making a atv plow power pivot?

i want to make my atv plow power pivot. im thinking of an electric actuator but don't know if it will be strong enough to hold all that weight.
my other ideas are:

2 lever system like a older boat lever system, and 1 cable to lift the pin and another to pivot the plow.

or an old plow hydraulic system but i don't think my quad will have enough electrical power to power that.

I know they have small 12 volt compressor and air cylinders that are very strong, but maby not enough to hold all that plowing weight.

also i want to add a down force kit with a gas spring, ill make that myself, 20$ for 2 110lb springs.

i know how to weld so i can make some brackets.
thanks
