Pre-kara tank gear?

Okay, so i've read some guides on pre-kara tank gear but i've already geared with PvP stuff before that. And when i'm comparing my items with the items from the guides, I don't find much difference. But even that, I'm told by a lot of my druid mates that I should get PvE gear and drop the PvP gear.
Here's my armoury ;

-My rings suck i'm working on that.
-I'm nearly there to replace my mace.
Any tips on which gear to switch to what gear? (still at pre-kara)
Thanks.

Heh.. yeah I know i need to work on rings and trinkets :S
And i'm missing lots of enchants :D - kinda low on cash and trying to save for epic mount =/
But my items are alright then? Any suggestions of PvE items I could get out of kara/hc/badges which are better than my current PvP one's?
Thnks ^^

I checked em, but they're hard to decide whether they're better than the one's that I already have and/or if it's worth spending all those badges just for a small upgrade. That's why I'm asking advice here -.-

The people you are listening to are either uneducated or stupid. PvP gear is much better than "PvE" gear for pre-kara gearing. The problem with the "pre-kara" gear lists is that all of them are out of date.
Use resilience to hit the uncrittable range then stack armor > stam > agility.
As far as your armory...
Replace your meta with (powerful earthstorm diamond) +18 stam 5% stun resist one. Get shattered sun pendate of resolve. Change your shoulder enchant to the +dodge one and grind out your aldor rep to get the higher enchant. Replace all of your gems with +12 stam gems. Get exceptional stats on your chest. Get fortitude (+12 stam) on your bracer. Get Earthwarden with +35 agil. Get idol of ferocity. Get +15 agil on your gloves. Get rid of heavy clefthoof leggings (they are junk) and get merciless dragonhide pants. Get nethercleft on your pants. Get rid of the heavy clefthoof boots (junk) and get vindicator/guardian (with the ranking) dragonhide boots. Idealy you will want the karazhan and badge +armor rings but for now get shapeshifter's signet and the 2 ring (if you can find it) or delicate enterium ring (crafted and cheap) if you can't. Get commendation from heroic MgT if you can. If not get any trinkets that +stam (timelapse, madness, vengeance, commander's badge, agrusian compass).
I don't really understand why people are so against using pvp gear for pve for druid tanking when the majority of the merciless+ and vindicator's+ items just destroy anything you can even get in Karazhan in most cases.
Get merciless and vindicator/guardian gear in every slot you can. If its above merciless than that is even better.

Once you have got crit immune using defense/resilience u should try to get other stats and keep ur crit immunity as near toi the cap as possible (to make sure you are getting the most out of your ilvl).
The biggest upgrades for you which i can think of atm are: trinket from 2nd boss Sl, badge of tenacity, Badge idol and Badge cloak. Those would be the pieces i would suggest getting.

Hit the recommendations, then go from there. It will be tough hitting the dodge and armor rating though, but if you can do it, then more power to ya. You WILL eventually need the PvE gear though, because you will start lacking the stats needed to do much of anyhting else.
