One of my biggest questions was how do teams that do coaxial crab run the wires down to there encoders in the actually swerve module? without the slip ring idea above i would think they could pretty easily get wound up around themselves and one of the advantages to the coax crab in my mind would be to not have to limit your self to a range of motion.

You put the encoder in the gearbox, so they never spin. you dont need them on the wheel module.
