I think this is a bug in Axis3D. In the meantime, one can use

# make ticklabels and ticklines invisible
for a in ax.w_xaxis.get_ticklines()+ax.w_xaxis.get_ticklabels():
    a.set_visible(False)

Note that w_xaxis, w_yaxis, w_zaxis correspond to x, y, z axis.
To remove y tickmakes, replace ax.w_xaxis with ax.w_yaxis.
