An air disk brake caliper housing is disclosed. The caliper housing includes a open rear end portion that opens into a passageway for receiving an actuator/adjuster mechanism. To minimize the outer contour of the caliper housing to alleviate packaging concerns with respect to a vehicle axle, the passageway is offset above an operating position for the actuator/adjuster mechanism. As the actuator/adjuster mechanism is inserted into the offset passageway, it passes a retaining step formed in the interior of the passageway to provide sufficient running clearance for gears of the actuator/adjuster mechanism. Once passing the retaining step, the actuator/adjuster mechanism may be dropped down to the appropriate operating height and installed in the operating position within the caliper.
