4 de ellos o 4 de estos


Explanation:
Es como decir "cuatro de ellos" o "4 artículos"...de hecho, el uso se ha degenerado...se usa "4 off" pero debe de ser "4 of" como diciendo "4 of these".

the position of the forked links (4 off) (Items 14)
la posición de las cuatro bielas ahorquilladas (pos. 14)


Explanation:
"4 off" quiere decir básicamente "la cantidad de cuatro unidades".

Yo lo pondría como lo indico aquí arriba, aunque no te fíes mucho de la traducción que he puesto para "forked link"; eso no me lo he mirado, es lo primero que se me ha ocurrido.
