I have a car hauler trailer and the safety chain is 24 in long. It will not reach on my 2020 F250 receiver hitch cause the chain is a little short. What size should I get for my trailer ?

How close are the existing chains from reaching? It's hard to say what exact length you'll need - you will just need to make sure you get that extra length needed to reach the loops on your F-250, keeping in mind that you need to cross the chains and allow for a bit of slack to avoid any issues when making tight turns.
