So, in some additional reading, it’s a failure of the intermediate pressure plate as this is a twin disc setup..
this pic is from another twin disc setup as I wasn’t able to find one of our Asian AL6.

I can see now and how that part could see some extreme heat and fail as it is the intermediary between the clutch discs and doesn’t have the thermal capacity as the flywheel or outer pressure plate.
To this extent, the centerforce aftermarket clutch goes back to a single disc setup. Which will likely diminish the NVH seen from the twin disc setup, but be more durable for those high temp/ high stress events one can see in a Jeep vs street car.

As is the case with things, Just Empty Every Pocket and head to the aftermarket. I’d hope this avenue would be suitable.
