LAX / Los Angeles Int'l. Airport Terminal 4 Gate 40 and Terminal 5 Admirals Clubs
Link to LAX information on aa.com.
Link to LAX web site.
LOCATION: LAX / Los Angeles International Airport Terminal 4 Gate 40 Admirals Club is in "Concourse level across from gate 40.." (aa.com) Entry on concourse level, lift / elevator to next floor; tarmac views; assistance with AA travel-related issues; some "quieter" areas.
HOURS: See here for hours. (Although, it has been reported that the Club may indeed be opening earlier than the website-posted time).
AMENITIES
Note: The Flagship Lounge is located upstairs within the Admirals Club and requires key card access - Club receptionists issue these, and the entrance to the Flagship Lounge is immediately to the left of the upstairs Club staff / assistance desks. See this thread.
You can now travel between the American Airlines T-4 and several other terminals without leaving Security via a pedestrian tunnel.
The airside connector between T-4 and the Tom Bradley International Terminal is open.
A shuttle bus from ground level by Gate 44 connects to the Remote (American Eagle) terminal, with its own Club.
Useful tip: If you are headed to baggage claim at LAX, and you arrive at one of the higher-numbered gates (45-49), you can make it a little easier on yourself by going down the escalator to the shuttle bus terminal. Then turn left and go down another escalator to the walkway to baggage claim. This long walkway under the main concourse has a moving sidewalk. It's the same distance, but with a bit of mechanical help. There is "Baggage Claim" signage leading to those escalators.

Whether you qualify for admittance to the oneworld lounges would depend on what flight, of course.
For the information on the airside connector, the link to that thread is

LAX Admiral's Club (T4) Closed Sept 10-11, 2016 (to merge)
FYI..
Got an email informing me that the AC would be closed this coming weekend due to renovations:
"Important information
On September 10 and 11, the Admirals Club® lounge in Terminal 4 at Los Angeles International (LAX) will be temporarily closed for renovations. This closure will allow us to make important progress in bringing you an all-new club in 2017. We apologize for the inconvenience."
Not sure if I received it because I'm flying through there on Sunday, the 11th.

ouch. Any mention of being able to use the OneWorld lounges for those 2 days? A friend of mine is flying LAX-DCA in first on 11 Sept but I don't think that qualifies for the OW Lounge in TBIT. I believe it has to be a 3 class plane to qualify. I hope they are able to make exceptions for the days the AC is closed.

If AC members really need to visit the club at LAX, there is one in the Eagle's Nest. And AS also gives members access to their lounge in T6. However, I'm not sure if the rules for that access requires a flight departing out of T6.

Unless they have a membership.

It is still the same physical building; the gates have just been renumbered to be "T6 gates" rather than "T4 gates". The point was to encourage LAX-originating passengers to check in and clear security in T6 rather than T4, thus relieving some congestion at check in and security in the latter.
