Hey Scott!
Yes, you can add a short length of chain to the TorkLift Locking FastGun Turnbuckles # TLS9529-2-LK so they'll reach a little farther - we actually have a photo of someone doing this in the reviews for the Turnbuckles that I'm linking for your reference.
Just be sure the chains are rated for the correct weight capacity and you'll be good to go!
