No, you do not have to change the steering column. You can strip down the barrel and put it back together re-crimping the base of the barrel again.
When you pull it down, very carefully.... reassemble in reverse order with some grease to lubricate and re-crimp using a punch in three places. Hit the punch gently as it is all pretty soft.
