I'd definitely send the other 3 in for repairs. Castle is pretty good on that end.

Locked in 1st gear will make one hell of a difference. You may want to try that first, but your top speed will suffer. At 23:1 you'll be geared for 33-35mph. Before, you weregeared for 55mph+, which with a heavy vehicle will burn stuff up as you found out. If you want to go that fast with such a heavy vehicle, like I said, I would definitely move to a 1527 motor on 8s with either a Pheonix HV110 or Lutach 10s esc. You'll definitely want to bring the kv down and up the voltage.

i think one of the biggest problem was that it was way over geared as i never used but maybe half the speed of what it was geared for.

the reason i have been thinking about going dual mmm and motor is that then i would still have brakes and reverse. but i havent found another esc other than mmm or tekin rx8 that are capable of high load and have those functions.

have actually been thinking about if using dual setup i will make some kind of differential and run the motors by seperate spurs so the motors can run indipendant speed but still share the load 50/50.

lol i'm pretty good at fabricating stuff like this but when it comes to calculate the brushless setup im kinda clueless
