If you are talking about the ball end of the radius rod being worn, it is more likely the foot peg halves are worn. I believe new foot peg outer halves are available. I can't see them listed by Sparex or BareCo but I think John (UK) mentioned that they were now available. Check with John.
As an interim measure, you may be able to skim the faces of the two halves of the foot peg to clamp the ball end tighter?

Are you sure the problem is a worn radius rod ball or foot peg halves? The radius rod locates the axle - if one tire "is kicking in" it sounds more like a steering problem: drag link tie rod ball joints; steering king pin/spindle or bushes; or possibly wheel bearings, steering box bushes or axle center pin bushes?
You may need to Jack up the front end and identify where all the steering and wheel "play" is.
