Cluch Disc question

3 years back i put a new complete clutch kit in my 99 5spd 3.0 ranger, i noticed i need a new clutch now again. The question i have is i noticed that you can just buy the Clutch Disc from auto parts places, is it a good idea to just replace the clutch disc and not the Pressure plate?. just trying to save a buck..

What kind of driving does this truck see? 3 years is a very short clutch life. You CAN replace just the disc but its really not recommended.
