4 link suspension explanation

Found a great video on youtube explaining how 4 link suspensions work while demonstrating it on an RC model. It's a good visualization of how the car reacts by changing the instant center position. My car pulls the front wheels too easily. I need to lower my IC closer to the IC line.
