We do have the Blue Ox Tow Bar to Roadmaster Adapter # BX88178 which you can use for the Roadmaster EZ Base Plate Kit # 524426-1 on your 2014 Ford Edge (non-EcoBoost - with Adaptive Cruise Control) to make it compatible with the discontinued Blue Ox Aladdin Tow Bar.
If your Ford Edge has the EcoBoost with the Adaptive Cruise Control then you would need the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX2628 instead which pairs right up to your Aladdin tow bar. If you don't already have the Roadmaster base plate kit but you have the Aladdin tow bar then I recommend going with the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX2628 as it fits both the EcoBoost and non-EcoBoost models that have the Adaptive Cruise Control, plus you don't need the adapter.
For a complete flat towing setup you will need a base plate kit, tow bar, safety cables, vehicle tow bar wiring, a supplemental braking system, and possibly a high-low adapter. If you do not have all of these components just let me know and I can make some additional recommendations for you.
