Excessive endshake will make it easier to detect failure to carry-up, or the timing problem in SA you noticed.
Yes, fixing the ftcu is done by installing a wider hand and fitting it to the ratchet.

How much is "some endshake"? You may need to fix that first.

Nominal endshake is around 0.001" or so. Anything larger than 0.005" to 0.006" will cause the cylinder to rub against the rear of the barrel stub, and exhibit excessive headspace too. You can use automotive feeler gages to check these dimensions.
