Does anyone know if I can replace my 3 LNB SWM with the 5 LNB SWM without realigning the dish? Is there any benefit in doing this?

It could need a slight tweak, but it would likely be fine. Adding the 5 lnb gets more of the music channels and local sd if they are there in your area. There are a few other channels there, also.
