Expert Reply:
You're looking for the Roadmaster EZ5 Base Plates # RM-524431-5 which are compatible with the EcoBoost versions of the 2014 Ford F-150 King Ranch and your Roadmaster Nighthawk Tow Bar # RM-676. These base plates have removable arms so that you can remove them when you're not flat towing and keep the factory look of your truck in tact.
There may be some other parts that you'll need for your flat towing setup, like wiring, supplemental braking and a high/low adapter. I've gone ahead and linked some part numbers of the parts I recommend for those as well in case you don't already have them.
Wiring: Roadmaster Diode 7 wire to 6 wire FlexoCoil Kit # RM-15267
Supplemental Braking: Blue Ox Patriot Portable Braking System # BLU37TR
I've also linked our entire selection of high/low adapters as well as a helpful article that explains how to measure to find the correct one for your flat towing setup. There are also some other helpful articles on flat towing that I recommend checking out if you're new to the world of flat towing.
