Is there an easy way to Centre Align one components in between two others?

so it has even spacing on either side.

 

or centre align one components between two faces of another component.

Do you have a project that represents your issue?  it is easy to show solutions when there is something to work from.  then I would also ask if you mean align or create a joint?

Simplest is to just measure and move.

 

Another method is to create a midplane (you may need to first create a temporary body by extruding a shape to touch each fixed component).  Once you have the midplane, start a sketch on the plane and place a point where you want the new component.  You can then use the Point to Point Move method. 

 

The Measure tool can also be used to determine the distance between a plane and a point on a component, body, or sketch.

 

Yet another way is to create an object on the midplane with a feature that can be used with the Align tool.
