Jaheira's 17 DEX, Full Plate + Shield ability, and her Ironskins potential are indeed formidable, but in my last game she took beating after beating, because her Saving Throws and her hitpoints simply couldn't compare to my other 2 Tanks (Keldorn and myself, a Wizard Slayer(24)->Thief). Even when I made sure Keldorn got to the front line before she did, Jaheira always died way more than anyone else. The good thing is that she had lots of offensive spells memorized, so I could Ressurect her in the middle of a battle and she could still be useful. Eventually I just left her as a Backup Tank, kicking ass with GWW and a Sling, only bashing people that got too close.
(Regarding the WS->T: Jan's armor makes quite the combo with a Potion of Defense. Not upgrading the Staff of the Ram until after you enter the Monastery makes one hell of a difference, too.)
