IMO 150 degrees after ~1 minute of driving means you have problems elsewhere. Or, the motor was geared WAY to high on a REALLY heavy truck. But if you're sure it's the motor, I'd just replace it completely. They aren't that expensive, really.

The motor was in a 10.5 lb Emaxx geared 54T spur 14T pinion on 4 lipo cells.When I realized the heat problem I put the 10L motor in another car and it still ran hot there too.I then took the motor from the other car and put it in the Emaxx and had no heat problems.The Emaxx now has a new and different motor.My reason for asking about modding the 10L is that I have never tinkered with a brushless motor before and thought this would be the perfect time being that this motor appears to be done.
