Just learned that T4 and TBIT are connected on the air side and am wondering if it's worth trying it.
No issue at all. It is my go to lounge these days when going through LAX on JAL flights.

Fortunately (or unfortunately), they open the check in counters on time. You could try checking through your bags in San Diego.
