You don't want to do all that. You can cultivate with an industrial provided the crops are not too tall. I am assuming it is not one of the "lo boy" tractors that IH made in certain series, I'm not that familiar with the variations in 504's. As to clearance, the Ford 2N,9N,8N were designed to cultivate with and probably have less clearance than your 2504. I have cultivated sorghum, etc with utility tractors with rear mount cultivators. You have to have a 3 point, and if the wheels are not adjustable, you have to have row widths that match the existing wheel spacing. A lot of vegetable crops are planted in narrow rows, but you can adjust the row width to your tires if you have to. That said, your tractor is a little large for what you want to do. You would really be better off with a 240 or 404, etc in the row crop versions, or else go back to the C or H with a 3 point.
