JX3 owners cam strap ROS questions

I am in the process of acquiring a JX3 G2 from a member here and as I already have a ROS I will start out with that as my foot rest.
Unfortunately the steps are on a ratcheting strap and would like to replace it with a cam-over-buckle strap to set up as quietly as possible.
So is there one particular brand and model of cam-over-buckle strap that out performs all others?
Bare in mind I am a larger guy at 250-260lbs if that matters.
Second question
How many steps do you JX3 owners usually use to allow 360* or as close to 360*s of movement around the tree. I would like to use as few as I can so as to keep things as simple as I can.
I tend to prefer Larger diameter trees vs smaller but will hunt out of any tree that I feel will safely hold me.
Thanks,
DJager
 
The treehopper over center buckles look great. I Don't have it but I would like to give it a shot. It has a long arm to cam. It is not on their website so you will have to call in order to get it. As for the jx 3 I use 4 treehopper steps, but I think I will try 3 and use my stick at my 6 o'clock as one step.
