Possibly the easiest step is to put the negs in a tray of hypo clear after fixing to allow the backside to clean up. Then do your wash in the tray.

Have you tried a pre wash with water prior to development? I use the JOBO test print drum (forget the number) to process 4x5 negatives with no problems. Just a thought that a 5 minute pre wash swells the emulsion and allows the developer to work more evenly across the sheet when first introduced to the drum.
