if you're willing to put a bit of money into it... (and i almost can't belive im saying this), Try Invulnerbility.
Granted I made an inv tank the very first day of issue 7, just after the global defense nerf and ED, and inv was stuck in the middle and sorely needed help.
Now, well, my inv/axe tanker has softcapped defenses to S/L/E/N and is sitting at 40% to F/C with just 1 enemy in range, almost capped S/L resist and a self heal that just about caps his hitpoints.
So far i've yet to do this with any other set, though i never use purples, so perhaps someone else out there has another set to use. 
Combat Kangaroos, Justice Server. First 50's
Jirra Roo Plant/Storm/Stone/Musculature Controller
Combat Kangaroo Rifle/Energy/Mace/Spiritual Blaster
Kung Fu Kangaroo Martial Arts/Reflexes/Body/Spiritual Scrapper
Tribal Arc Shield/Elec/Mu/Spiritual Tanker
Second best nothing. All the survivability in the world means nothing if you can't get where you're going.
Try Dark Armor.
My DA tank is softcapped to S/L/E/N defense and has over 85% resistance to psionic. Dark Armor has the best self heal in the game on a 30 second base recharge (enhanceable to 15, possible to push farther), is practically immune to endurance drain and recovery debuffs, has a perception buff and resistance to debuff, can mez enemies around it in two different ways, and on top of it all, doesn't even die the first time.
Where to now?

Otherwise, tell us what you have in mind as being tanky, and we can give you an answer that actually means something to you. What do you want to do exactly? Do you want to stand there and taunt? Do you want to be more productive than that? Do you want higher damage output? Do you have means for IOing out your tank?
Until we know what you're really looking for, the odds of you coming away from your tanker experience with a positive view are kind of low. People will only tell you what *they* think is tanky. It's been my experience that not all of them agree.

Kill 'em all. Let XP sort 'em out.
