Wow what a complete post. Thank you!
You don't need to remove the oil cooler to replace the line, but the filter, yes. Some folks remove the oil cooler when they replace the steering rack, but its much easier to undo the driver side engine mount and jack up the side of the engine to get the necessary clearance.
Good suggestion on jacking up the engine. I didn't even think about that.
