I haven't "rebuilt" one, but have replaced one. It's possible with the engine still in, but I had to unbolt the driver's side engine mount and jacked the engine up to get the clearance needed to remove and replace the oil cooler. Be sure to remove the oil filter first... For some reason I forgot to and had to remove the filter after I unbolted the oil cooler from the block. Good luck.
