If it is 'flighty handling' and not actually Deathwobble, yes, a set of CA's will help with it. Upper or lower is your choice.
Uppers are less expensive, but do not have the range of adjustment that lowers do. (since they are adjusted 'shorter' than stock to correct the caster) You also have to cut a bolt to remove the stock passenger side upper CA, which may or may not influence your decision.
Lowers are more expensive, but also give more adjustability.
The stock steering stabilizer shouldn't really need to be replaced, as long as the rest of your setup is dialed in. (unless it is actually bad?) You'll see posts on here from people not running any stabilizer at all.
