You won't find a 'stock-replacement' type u-joint stronger (or even as strong as) than the Spicer 5-760x (front axleshaft) or 5-153X (driveshaft).
Driveshaft joints normally are not under as much stress as axleshaft ones though, so you'd be slightly less likely to have skimping on a driveshaft joint bite you in the ass than on the front axleshafts.
