The only axle wrap I know of is with leafsprings. Can you be more specific? I'm curios...

I'm sure he means the exact thing you'd have with leaf springs, the axle rocks front to back on acceleration/deceleration. Mine have a little slop, but nothing too bad.

Put a piece of nitro fuel tubing or some o-rings in there to take up some of the slop.

Only thing close to axle wrap would be the axle twisting forward and backward from worn out rod ends. The upper axle mount will wear and allow the axle to rock back and forth.
