spring ball transfer unit?

I may be wrong here but is it just the thing up a bit from centre in the picture, looks a bit like the old fashioned ball catch as used on doors at one time.

I would have thought you could make one to suit using a bar bored out, spring and ball bearing, A drift being used to knock over the end so the ball will not fall out.

Trying to figure what the whole device is and looks like some form of positional controller?

It's a sprung detent ball assy, not the sort of thing that is regularly sold over the counter, but a bearing dealer 'might' have a lead on this sort of device?

h-pattern shifter used for racing sims, so you were right basically
