You can do normal instances sure. As far as heroic, it's about knowing how to tank more than gear. Your gear has a lot of issues, but if you have a competent healer and can keep aggro, it can work. If you're going in without knowing the instances inside and out, then the lack of gear is a major problem.
I'd run as a DPS for awhile to get drops. No one needs drops in heroics these days. Bring some dream shards along if people are wanting shards, and take the tank items.
And no guilds on this server wants to help me get better gear,
Please avoid this mentality. YOU are responsible for your gearing, and there's no reason you can't do it yourself if you can't get into raids as DPS.
By running heroics as a DPS, you can gear yourself into T9 gear with enough work.

You're not uncrittable for heroics yet so I wouldn't recommend that. First I'd go about farming regular HoL for the +defense trinket off of Loken. Yes you'd have it replace one of your +stam trinkets, but uncrittable is key for tank.
Then I'd go looking to see what normals drop +defense rings.
Once you get the trinket and the rings you should be uncrittable and then you can work at heroics.
While your spec is tankish (it has some problems, please read some stickies to fix it), if you threw together a dps set of gear and equipped it, you should still be capable of a respectable amount of dps for heroics to get a boost in gear/emblems that way.
