Here is a working example with Radio button. On load the input field is disabled, when you click on radio button the input field will enable.

VF Page

<apex:page standardController="contact" extensions="radioActionCtrl"  >
    <apex:form >
        <apex:selectRadio >
            <apex:actionSupport event="onchange" action="{!changeInputState}" rerender="opPanelName"/>
            <apex:selectOption itemValue="" itemlabel="Option1"/>
        </apex:selectRadio>       
        <apex:outputPanel id="opPanelName">
            <apex:inputField value="{!contact.firstName}" id="NameInput" required="false"/>
            <script>
                document.getElementById('{!$Component.NameInput}').disabled = {!disableInput};
            </script>
        </apex:outputPanel>            
    </apex:form>
</apex:page>

Controller Extension

public class radioActionCtrl {
    public Boolean disableInput {get; set;}
    public radioActionCtrl(ApexPages.StandardController controller) {
        disableInput = true;
    }    
    public void changeInputState(){
        disableInput = false;
    }
}

Hope this will help.

Here is a example...

<apex:pageBlock id="tBlock"> 
        <apex:outputLabel value="Checkbox" for="theCheckbox" />  
            <apex:inputCheckbox value="{!customObject.CheckBox__c}" id="theCheckbox">
                <apex:actionSupport event="onchange" rerender="tBlock"/>  
            </apex:inputCheckbox>   

            <apex:outputLabel value="Enter Data Here" />  
            <apex:inputText value="{!customObject.TextField__c}" disabled="false" rendered="{!(customObject.CheckBox__c == true)}"/>  
            <apex:inputText value="{!customObject.TextField__c}" disabled="true" rendered="{!(customObject.CheckBox__c != true)}"/>  

            <!-- If you only want a field to show up when you check the box See below -->  
            <apex:inputText value="{!customObject.TextField__c}" rendered="{!(customObject.CheckBox__c == true)}"/>  
    </apex:pageBlock>

I hope this helps out.

Thanks!
