What I am finding is "sliding t handle"

It is a sliding T handle bolt. Those are custom made for an application. No sure you can buy them premade.

Andrew, would perhaps an adjustable ratchet handle work as a substitute? The handles can be oriented in any position by just pressing in on the spring and rotating, and they won't rattle from vibration like the old sliding t handle/bolt. Many vendors sell them, in various sizes. You'd need to measure the thread pitch and diameter of the old handles, and the length of threaded shank that you need. Here are some sources to give you an idea.
