SW Ohio | Is there any capacity differences between the 62 and 65? What other differences are there? Cab controls, etc? |

Tennessee | Could you safely turn up the pump to match an R65 on a 98 R62? Or would there be overheating, EGT issues?
The 62 cab is very nice, quiet, and probably the roomiest I have ever sat in. The 65 cab is a little more modern, but is not that much improved except for the curved glass, however, it is harder to squilgee curved glass.

NC KS | A 98 R62 will over heat if turned up unless you don't run in 100 degree heat.
A 2000 or newer R62 is at the R65 horsepower and had a radiator to handle it. You can get a better radiator (custom radiator) for a 98 that could probably handle the heat. |

SW KS, near Dodge City | Where do you get that radiator at? And what else would you have to change to put it in a '94? |

EC Indiana | It depends on the year of the 62 and the 65. A late 62 and an early 65 are similar. but a 98 62 and an 08 65 have alot of differences.
There are many updates that, by themself, do not seem like much, but added all together make a much better machine. But, many of the 62s and early 65s may have been modified (hyperized) to be more like a late 65. Or even better for than matter.

65 has new cab
optional 14" Unload auger,
Later 65s have Sisu (AGCO) engine
CDF Rotor
lowered feed floor,
upgraded feed chain
many more, the closer in age they get to the S series.
The biggest difference between a late 62 and an early 65 will be the cab and a little hp. As far as capacity, there is alot of hidden capacity in both machines if they are still factory stock. There are many modified 62s that will easily outperform stock early 65s.
What you are probably really asking is, how much more is it worth to buy an early 65 vs a late 62. Side by side, all things equal, (options, history, location, condition, hours, appearance, etc) maybe $10-20k. |

Nebraska, The land of corn and cattle | Everything said so far is spot on. I really have nothing to add |

NC KS | Several years ago, there was a radiator shop in Imperial, NE doing some custom radiators that would cool better but go in the same hole. A good radiator shop may be able to help one out.
Prior to 2000, factory radiators were designed to cool at 98 degrees. 2000 or newer and the temp spec was 120 plus they had the spinner on them to keep them cleaner. If you have been around the newer machines, you can see how much bigger the radiator is. Plastic fans help some, too. |

Central Alberta | Ran an '06 R75 this harvest with an '02 R62. I like the cab upgrades on the 5 series and the larger unloading auger. The 62 would take a while to unload if the hopper was loaded up while the 75 could get it off in a big hurry. In the field I was surprised how the 62 would keep up to the 75. The 62 had a 36' draper while the 75 had a 40' draper and they would be at the same speed. The 62 had a sunnybrook rotor while the 75 a CDF with no reverse bars. |

Strathcona, mn | I've never been around a r62, but have a 1990 r60 and a 92' deutz r72 and a 96' 350hp m11 cummins. All of them have been hyperized..... in easy to thresh crops they are all really close in capacity. In hard to thresh crops, ie heavy wet wheat the hp shines..... It is amazing a little gleaner can outperform much larger machines. In corn we are seeing 2600-2700 bushels per hour on the r72 without losses..... It is hard to drive fast enough with a 8r30 corn head to hit 2600 bushels per hour. I would guess that by hyperizing you will see around a 20-30% capacity increase in most crops withot adding any loss. It isn't much for the 96' r72 to run a 36' draper in 70+ bushel wheat at close to 5mph pushing out 1500bph. Keep the semi trucks moving. |

Capacity Gleaner R-62, R-65 differences?
