2640 JD clutch

I'm helping my neighbor with his 2640. A year ago his pressure plate broke. It is a "fingers" style pressure plate and it broke near one of the three fingers. It lasted a year and it broke at the same place. Has anyone run into this before. We used all JD parts, but we found out today, that even though we bought the parts from the dealer, JD doesn't make the parts, they are aftermarket. To me it looks like a problem with the metal of the pressure plate. We don't want to do this again. The dealership didn't have any idea why. The tractor gets a good amount of use, mostly haying. Any help would be much appreciated.
 
There is a 2640 not far from my home. The
farmers that own the tractor have replaced
the clutch about ever 3 years. I blamed it
on the operators, after I helped them do the
last clutch job & seen the condition of the
rest the machine & there other equitment I
don't think it's the operators anymore. He
says the engine has more power than what the
clutch can stand. Not always but on some the
fingers were broke.. The clutch we installed
was New I think a LUK supose to be heavier
duty, only time will tell.
