The best FAA check pilot I ever took a check ride with was a little lady under 5 ft. She sat on a cushion and put wood blocks on the rudder pedals (years before "Short Round" was thought of.
Now to the topic. I have known plenty of folks under 5'7" who had no difficulty at all with tractors. I think it likely there were adjustment options you didn't explore. If not, skip that tractor as there are plenty of other choices. You shouldn't have to customize a new tractor just because you are 5'7' My mom, sister, and wife are all 5'7" and no problems.
Wife's sister loves to run my Kubota L4610 with cab and she is about 5'4-5"
