I take it you've swapped the gearbox as well ?
If you have then yes you need the 2.5 propshaft, have a look at the output flange on the gearbox thats the problem.
If you're desperate and can't get a prop you can always use the 2.0 gearbox.

You still need to swap the diff as well, whichever gearbox you use.
