Expert Reply:
Both the Roadmaster MX Base Plate Kit # 4427-3A and the XL Base Plate Kit # 4427-1A will work with the 2014 Ford Explorer both with or without adaptive cruise control.
Both base plates are also compatible with your Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar # RM-520.
If you don't already have safety cables, cables like # RM-643 are required when flat towing.
Other components needed to flat tow are a wiring harness for the towed vehicle, like # 154-792-118158, and a supplemental braking system, like # SM99251. It is also likely that you will need a wiring extension and high-low adapter, which I have linked the product pages of for you.
I have also linked some help articles on flat towing for you.
