The rear steering wear is usually caused by the hicas arms, these are service replacement parts, there are also two outer hub bushes that the hicas arms connect to and these can wear too.

 

The hicas arms are the easier option to change on a DIY basis, the outer hub bushes if required are a little harder and you may prefer to leave them to a garage or mate with a ramp, either way not the end of the world.
