No, but it's all related. If you change the ride height, the toe and camber are affected. When you change the toe you change the camber so you end up playing with both of those until it works out. The P221 tool mainly adjusts the toe and you mainly adjust the camber with an eccentric bolt but you have to play them both against each other, like tuning a guitar with a floating whammy bar.

I made a P221 tool out of a scrap 15mm socket but it's not super easy. I ground it down to have one tooth sticking out (made of material that was once the socket wall) and made sure the tooth had real sharp 90 degree transitions at the base, if it's curved the tool walks out when you try to rotate it. If overheated it'll probably break when used. The tooth has to be pretty small to work also, a cheap socket might be too soft. If I had planned ahead I'd have bought the P221.
