We have exactly what you need to equip your 2021 Ford Explorer for towing.
I recommend the Curt # CU78FR, as the hitch is manufactured in the US. For a trailer wiring harness, use # C56093. For a ball mount, use # 2753 and # 19260 for a 1-7/8 ball or # 63845 for a 2 inch trailer ball.
I've linked to install instructions and videos for the hitch and wiring harness I recommended.
