You also need to factor in the 4 caps needed for the threaded style, I wouldn't worry unless you are beating on it hard. Just have good ujoints like spicers.

Then I found these too. The "superior" version above looks "meatier."

63-79 Stub Axles
These are NEW GM differential carrier axle yokes. The HD threaded units are GM part # 3872922, while the U bolt style is GM part # 14016436.
$126 Part # D081
(One Threaded Stub Axle)

I use the standard hardened tip yokes that lonestar fabs up. The tip is harder then stock and should be fine for daily and strip use. If you're going to torque them enough to twist them you're going to have other failures too.
