R72 processor

I have a 1998 r72, looking to do some processor mods and curious what you guys thought.

I have standard rotor, 1/2" bars on threshing side and 3/4" on separating side. I have added the triangle with helical at the very back of the rear feeder. Running 3 sets of reverse bars on the separator side. Corn concave, but cut only 2000 ac of wheat, 1000 bu. soybeans, and 500 bu. milo a year.

Was thinking i would extend helicals to discharge area, and replace half of discharge paddles with extended bars. And also add hump kit to concave door.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jacob

I appreciate the info Dan, I will try to get to goin on some mods next week, one question for now do you have any experience running an r series in milo? I know from way to much experience that gleaners are not the best milo eaters out there, but will any of these mods help me much in milo? Or is there anything specific I could do to one of the other machines that just cuts wheat and milo and no beans.

Thanks
