Not sure about Pathfinder in general, but a lot of suitcases use standard 60-70mm inline skate wheels nowadays, which all have the same, removable ball-bearings (2 per wheel).
I recently got a suitcase that was missing one of the ball bearings on one wheel. I replaced it by popping-out one of the bearings from an old pair of inline skates and putting this into the malfunctioning wheel. The bearings in the case had ~5mm standoff hubs, which I approximated by adding a couple of washers to the outside of the wheel.
Removing bearings is a little fiddly - I just wedged a small flathead screwdriver against the inside edge of one bearing (i.e. insert screwdriver from the opposite side of the bearing you're removing). Then braced the driver handle against a table and pushed down on the wheel to easily pop-out the bearing.
It now works fairly well (Certainly better than when it arrived).

You can't replace just the wheel bearings. You have to replace the whole hub assembly. Costs about 200 bucks per wheel at a repair shop. I have had both of mine replaced.
