I found a set of spindles in my garage today with ABS teeth, does that make them S4?

Counting the teeth will tell you the spindles' year.

Which way are the caliper bolt holes facing? S4 caliper bolts thread inward towards the spindle where the non-S4 calipers bolt to the backside of the spindle. That should tell you pretty quickly.

No calipers, I'll get picts or write down the numbers tonight.

Not likely I count the abs things, but I might estimate them. Its like a fine tooth gear, around 100 teeth, but could be 80 or 120 (from memory, will est closer when I look).

If its over 60, its not S4.

Always remember mike, with exception, over 60 teeth is S3 and below, and under is S4. Same for flywheels.

I don't like going barefoot in the garage, and the cat doesn't have the right number of toes.

Definitely its more 80+ than it is 60.

Picts and numbers when I have them.

Here's the dope:

end of drive shafts .
