10inch Dobsonian 2" Eyepiece Help

Hi All!

I have had my 10inch Dobsonian for a year or so but have always used 1.25inch eyepieces. As a little Easter present for myself I went out and bought a 2inch barlow and a couple of eyepieces but I have come across a bit of an issue I hope you can help me with!

Once I take the 1.25inch adapter out of the focuser, it is actually 2 1/4 inches rather than 2inches - I am obviously missing a part but I can't find any info on what I need to track down and purchase. Is someone able to point me in the right direction? I have attached a couple of pics in case I explained that badly.

Thanks
