You bet! That part is not meant to go with anything, and was most likely included with the 3-Prong Male XLR connector - I'd toss it.

The threaded rod and nuts are meant for the Knee Darts.
The Girth Belt looks good, but in my opinion could be toned down some (Not as red).....and No, it shouldn't be twisted like that. The ammo belt also looks decent enough, just make sure you've got 8 pouches for the ROTJ version. I see you've got 9 pouches on the belt. (So you'll have a spare) The cape also looks good, Looks like a US Army Half Shelter. Just make sure to do your measurements it should drape from your shoulder down to the middle of your knee, but not more than 4-5 inches past your knee.
The Hip Pouches, You are correct in that one should be much, much lighter than the other. Also....

Your right pouch (Worn on your right side) should be the darker of the two. Here is the 501st CRL on the topic...

That one is a mystery to me. I certainly don't have anything like that in my setup. Maybe an ESB greeblie? I know [USER=13445]Krewkid82[/USER] just got done with his ESB build - any input Krewkid82?
Oh if you wanted to stop by my WIP, it is at: Iron's ROTJ WIP
I've detailed how I did everything out pretty well and if you have questions you only need to ask. My thread is a long read and picture heavy - but has been viewed by many. Hehehe!
