The top pic looks like a 3/5 drop. Bottom pic is probably 5/7. Depends on what look you are going for. Look into Bell Tech or Western chassis for the kits.

You need to decide what wheels and tires you want to run before you get a drop.

If you don't wanna c notch the most drop I would do in the rear is 5". You can achieve this with a flip kit in the rear.

I would do 2.5" drop spindle in the front and cut one coil off the front coil springs. This will give you 4.5-5" of drop. Then a flip kit in the rear.

How tall are your tires?

If you have 10 inch wheels in the front you probably won't be able to go that low. Your rears will need 5" backspacing to tuck under the rear fenders. Not sure what backspacing those are
