I would check the previous day in case of weather issues... SFO and sometimes LAX are prone to fog this time of year, that early in the morning.
Well... not necessarily same terminal.
AA5971 is an Eagle flight operated by E170 so it will arrive at the remote terminal. The bus ride from remote terminal to T4 is about 20~25 minutes.
AA183 has departed from both T4 and TBIT. I would check the terminal/gate before you board the SFO-LAX flight.
If it is departing from T4 on the day of your travel, you can just walk to the gate after arriving from the bus.
If it is departing from TBIT on the day of your travel, you need to transfer to the T4-TBIT shuttle at Gate 44. If the T4-TBIT shuttle is not running, then you have to exit to the curbside and walk over to TBIT and clear TSA again.
