You should use the built in limit switches, they're magnetic and function just like a mechanical switch. The only one I had to replace was the z-axis, but that avoids a lot of printed part mods.
When I first did my cubeX mod to make it open source, I used e3d-v6 (knock-offs, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B010MSTVZO) and found I could turn down the hex shank of the push-fit connector to be the same size as the stock hotend, and this extended it to be the correct length as well. I've built this https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2537620 to demonstrate.
I'm now using bowden (hopefully adapting https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1680034) with insight from http://www.prusaprinters.org/update-multimaterial-upgrade/ and http://www.prusaprinters.org/update-multi-material-upgrade-2/) for multimaterial printing
Make sure to upgrade the hotend with this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01F82BMI8 or it'll be worthless for anything besides PLA.
Included a drawing of the e3d-v6 since it requires a model to post. Let me know if you want one, I can ship you one for shipping cost ($7).
