I'm just a backyard mechanic with no service manual, but figure any workable answer is better than no answer. I just replaced the rear pads on my 2004.5 to find the caliper would not clear the new pads, and the pistons would not retract with a "C" clamp. Removing the emergency brake cable from the rear brake cylinder didn't help. The caliper pistons are threaded and can be turned clockwise to loosen, or CCW to tighten. Look at the four notches on the piston. (after you have removed the wheel and caliper) I did not find another adjuster, and didn't look very hard as everything worked out great once I backed out the pistons for a little clearance. Hope this helps someone, Steve B
