Default I need a solid 6s performer for beefy MT.

I've killed three(3) brushless 1845kv motors in an emaxx 3906 on 6s geared 17/66 locked in second over the course of a month. I'm getting great power and run times but pushing the limit kills the motors. The truck is on the heavy side (11-12lbs), what motor/esc should I get? I know about monster, but will they die too? should I go down kv's like in the 15s, 12s, less? any help appreciated.

1845kv on 6s is a lot. 1300-1400kv is good with 6s.
