10 bolt question

OKAY...I know that the 10 bolt's are **** and they arent worth the money to try and beef up so they will last. but mine took a **** last night, and i was wondering if there is ANYTHING I can do to a least make it a little bit tougher when i rebuild it so that it doesnt just blow out again. my car is mostly stock so im not putting down tons of power.
