My guild is small, and we’re a casual group with lower level players. We do have about a half dozen heavy hitters though. We just finished our first successful Heroic Rancor Raid after one failed atte...

TM manipulation is essential. You've got that right. However, without tenacity down (TFP, Dengar etc.) your whole team is going to need very high potency to land their TM removal, and without speed down (Phasma, 5s, RG, Vader, Dengar etc.) the Rancor will still gain TM relatively fast. Dengar can apply both, but he's a rare toon at your stage. The combination of Phasma and TFP is awsome due to the synergy. Phasma's Victory March ensures that TFP's next hit will be a crit and hence land tenacity down. With tenacity down applied Phasma's speed down will land easily. Furthermore, Phasma's VM is great for when Teebo looses his stealth. The TM gain will give him a chance to regain it faster or also to get ahead of the Rancor's TM.
Other TM manipulators that work well in that raid:
FOO is really great. He can remove TM often and also grant 100% TM to Teebo when needed.
EE and Ewok scout. EE grants TM to your team and can save you if things go wrong. Scout removes TM and calls assist for furter TM removal. Also great ewok synergy.
QGJ has TM removal on his basic. Furthermore his special can heal a bit if things go bad.
Pro tip:
Have your TM manipulators fast, but keep your Tenacity/speed down debuffers slow (unless under zader lead). The Rancor gains TM for every hit he receives. After the debuffs are applied their hits will only feed TM to the rancor.
Pro tip 2:
In phases 2 and 3 save toppling for when the Rancor has high TM and you risk him taking a turn. Killing the button is a great life saver. Save it for when it's really needed.
