you don't need to replace bearings in the normal wear and tear of a 2 year old trailer. Just grease them.
It is somewhat common, at least on a number of the 5r forums I've been lurking on the last 2+ years to remove the Chinese bearing, the crap tires and sometimes the under rated wheels. I would not be doing it if I could not. Sorta like some individuals upgrade their brakes to disc and their suspension to independent. The bearings I'm installing are made in the USA not China. Some things from China are okay. Others are not. People upgrade their water pumps, TV antenna, sound system. I believe that the most important thing on these poorly made 5th wheels are the tires, bearings, brakes and suspensions. Followed by water piping, electrical connections and insulating R-value. Some of it I can fix. Some not.
