I have a set of Kingfox 22x12x8 smooth tires on my Model
IV-1200/912uls. Grest tires!. Yesterday I had a valve stem twist off
when a tire rotated on the rim on landing. Can anyone give me a
source for tubes for these tires? The tubes are marked 22X11-8.
What tire pressure are others using in this tire?

Just about any ATV dealership should have them. That's a common ATV tire
and tube size.

You can get tubes at your local lawn and tractor shop!

One thing to check when you get your new tubes is what is causing the problem. Most people in the UK run their tyres tube less but I and a friend ran with tubes. Despite positively checking that the tyres never moved on the rim tubes still seemed to occasionally fail.
What seems to happen is that at the low pressures of 8 psi or so, over a long period of time the tubes worked themselves round inside the tyre. Hard to believe but true.
The remedy was simple about 4 times a year I took the valve from the tyre and with it completely deflated gave the tyre a massage.
Sometimes as the tube deflated I could here the tube reposition.
Regards
David

Might try some rubber glue on the inside of the tires.
