Comments

Leading zeros in b, c, and d are allowed.

Many numbers come in pairs, like: (220, 221), (715, 716), (140017877, 140017878).

Some numbers are also member of A259379, for example: 287, 715, 1095 and also the pair (140017877, 140017878).

Example

198^4 = 1536953616 and 198 = abs (1 - 536 + 953 - 616 ).
8905^4 = 6288335365950625 and 8905 = abs (6288 - 3353 + 6595 - 0625 ).

Mathematica

test[n_] := Block[{L=IntegerLength@ n, v}, v = IntegerDigits[ n^4, 10^L]; Length@ v == 4 && Abs@ Total[ {1, -1, 1, -1} v] == n]; Select[Range[10^5], test] (* Giovanni Resta, Aug 12 2015 *)
