These is a set ( #251612527923) on Ebay. It says
Brand new set of high speed ring and pinion gears for 1930’s era Pierce Arrow cars. Manufactured by Orf Corp in Michigan. The ratio is 3.85 / 1. 54 teeth on the ring gear 14 teeth on the pinion.
Maybe it is a dual purpose motor and anchor?
I would recommend not using anything with detergent in. I have seen modern transmission fluid strip the clutch linings off overnight using detergent fluid vs non detergent. In auto transmissions
I have used plumbers’ red rubber sheet. It is in 6×6 sheets, as thin as 1/16″, but is available in thicker sheets.
Here is one on regulators
Here is a site with more info than you may need, but it has a lot of good info.
I looked for 6 volt tires and couldn’t find any. I did come up with 2 other potential options.
1 At http://www.powerstream.com they have a DC/DC Boost converter that allows you to run 12 Volt items off of 6 Volts. Might be handy for other things.
Part# PSTC-0624012. Lists for $298
2. Maybe there is a solar charger?
Due to my lack of knowledge about invisible things (electricity) I always check and clean any ground in the circuit. Sitting can let corrosion start.
I don’t think your car has a cut out. They were a common problem on my Model A until I went the diode route.
Here is some data I got off of restorecarsclassifieds.com

Air-cooled. Third brush control type with Battery
Charge Regulator (two-step charging rate).
Charging Rate Adjustment—Third brush shifted
through rack-and-pinion control by slotted adjusting
screw in commutator end plate. To adjust, turn
adjusting screw to right or clockwise to increase,
and to left or counter-clockwise to decrease charging
rate.
Maximum Charging Rate—32 amperes (cold), 8.0

(third).
Field Current,—3.5-3.7 amperes at 6.0 volts.
Motoring Current—16.7-18 amperes at 6.0 volts (Y2 ampere more if relay and regulator in circuit).
Field Fuse—5 ampere capacity in knurled plug in
side of regulator case.
Removal:—Generator cradle mounted on left front of
engine with fan belt drive (double Vee belt). To remove,
slack off drive belt, disconnect water pump
drive coupling, loosen mounting clamp band.
Belt Adjustment:—To adjust, loosen clamp bolt on
fan bracket, turn eccentric shaft spindle untU 10 lb.
puU on belt midway between puUeys causes 1″ deflection,
tighten clamp bolt. Additional range of
adjustment secured by taking bracket off engine
and moving bracket up until mounting bolts engage
lower holes.
CONTROL UNIT (RELAY-REGULATOR):—Mod. 40300.
Consists of Cutout Relay and Battery Charge Regulator
in a single case on the generator field frame.
See article in Electrical Equipment Section for
complete data on Battery Charge Regulator.

I guess these came from Mark Huston. Thanks for putting them up.
Bill,
Please add me to the list.
Thank you for your effort.

Well I might as well ask, what kind of issues are there with EE-3’s since that is what I have?

You may have to resurface this plate if grooved or pitted.
Finally, here is the mechanism once the plate is removed.
This should be as far as you need to go to replace the friction disc once relined.
Assembly is the reverse of these steps, but there is a gasket between the rear cover and the main body.
Here is the second friction disc. The other one is in the rear cover plate which can be seen in picture #3 on the ground about 2 o’clock
Here is disc. Mine is woven and has a seam in it.
Here is the friction disc. The shorter boss (where my thumb is) is towards the rear of the car.
Here is the spring
