Shoju's "Guaranteed to tank heroics" Gear Set. Thought I would share.
#16
If you are like me, and like to have a carrot on a stick to gear for, I present to you, my 4.1 BiS gear set, without buying BoE's, or raiding. If you are late to the raiding party, swapping mains for 4.2, or whatever, this will get you the best bang for your buck out of the gates.

Head: SpiritShield Mask - 4.1 Heroics
Neck: Amulet of Protection - 4.1 Heroics
Shoulder: Pauldrons of Sacrifice - 4.1 Heroics
Cloak: Wrap of the Great Turtle - Guardian's of Hyjal, Exalted
Chest: Beauty's Plate - H:BRC, Beauty.
If you have the VP to purchase it, I would upgrade to your tier 11 Chest.
Bracers: Alpha Bracers - H:HoO Anraphet
Gloves: Fingers of Light - H:HoO Rajh
The JP gloves are a valid option as well, but as I my tastes have changed so far in cata, I prefer these for the socket bonus more so than the JP gloves. If you have the VP, I would purchase your T11 Gloves.
Belt: Hardened Elementium Girdle - Crafted, Blacksmithing.
Legs: Legguards of the Unforgiving - 4.1 Heroics
Boots: Twilight Highlands Rep Boots -Rep reward, Exalted.
Rings:
Ring of the Battle Anthem - Valor Points, if you have them.
Felsen's Ring of Resolve - Therazane, Revered.
Ring of Three Lights - H:LCoT - Siamat
Trinkets:
Mirror of Broken Images
Leaden Despair
Trinkets are a very odd spot for tanking right now, with a decent amount of options.
Weapon: Rentaki's Soul Slicer or Re-forged trollbane 4.1 heroics
Shield: Elementium Earthguard -Crafted, Blacksmithing
relic or Gun
Gurubashi Destroyer -4.1 Heroics
Relic of Khaz'goroth -Valor Points (if you have them)
Stalagmite Dragon -H:Stonecore, Slabhide.


I plan on using this as the list I go by for gearing up my ALT DK Tank. Here is a link to the WoWhead Comparison, for how I plan to gem and enchant it
