OOPS IT IS A TL2
It sounds like you have moved the headstock. You can check whether the face of the chuck is parallel to the X axis using an indicator, and you will probably find it is out the same as your X taper.
I crashed my TL2 and moved the headstock and simply loosened the big bolts holding it to the base and then tapped it until I had it cutting within about 0.0005" in 6" on the Z axis.
An open mind is a virtue...so long as all the common sense has not leaked out.
