Great list to get your ilevel up before going into heroics. Good way to get your health pool up too =P
Cheers,
Hat

keep in mind that running random normal daily gives justice points, so try to replace your lowest ilevel item with something from justice vendor:
http://www.wowhead.com/items?filter=cr=129:45;crs=0:1;crv=46555:0
and when you hit average ilevel to que for heroics, you ARE ready for them... you just have to use cc on trash and cooldowns on bosses.

Its a fine list, but way too many pieces with hit/exp. It could really use some trimming down or at least a profile with what just turned 85 tanks should be going for (not exp and hit gear).

Also, why do you feel that tanks should not have exp/hit gear? They are useful stats for threat (which tanks that are not uber geared may need when starting heroics with better geared DPS), and you can always reforge for avoidance if you don't have any threat issues.
Threat should not be an issue for at least another couple months. The main issue is not wiping. It's commonly accepted that you dont stack TPS gear unless you're farming content.
If anyone is having threat issues on bosses, tell them to tell DPS to use their aggro wipe abilities, and also Paladins need to remember that we have a little spell called salvation. Use it. Open on bosses with DP->Inq->AW->Exo->AS->Judge->CS->ect. If you open well and you+they use abilities you will keep aggro off 20k DPS.
Exo/Hit is a crutch for the tank due to lazyness or liking their 15k dps on trash. It makes life harder on the healer at this point in content. Sometimes you have to take it, but dont stack them yet.
We are tanks, not sports cars.
Also, if youre going to spend money on crafted chest, get the
Blue actual tank chest+2-5k gold

DPS chest
> purple 'tank' chest
