I have the JT and they work great. It looks like the Steadyfast only goes on one front leg and one rear jack. If that's the case, that doesn't seem good to me. I would go with the JT or JT style by other manufacturers, and get full stabilization, not just one in front and one in back.

X2! BUT
The OP has already placed the order for Steadyfast system, I agree that the double bracing of the front legs and center bracing of the back make for a rock solid stance, and I don't have X chocks.
The Steadyfast has three braces , two in the front ,one side to side, and one front to rear. Then one side to side in the rear.
If you just let common sense kick in, and think about the bracing you should come to the same conclusion I did, and the reason I went with the Steadyfast system.
The front brace side to side prevents any motion side to side in the front, the front brace that goes from front to back , prevents any motion from back to front. The side to side back brace prevents any motion from side to side in the rear.
The JT Strong arms serve the same function, but cannot be anymore stable then the Steadyfast. They both use the same principal, but in a little different way.
